Young's Literal1 [A Psalm] of David, when he changed his behaviour before Abimelech; who drove him away, and he departed. I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise [shall] continually [be] in my mouth. 2 My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear [thereof], and be glad. 3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together. 4 I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. 5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed. 6 This poor man cried, and the LORD heard [him], and saved him out of all his troubles. 7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them. 8 O taste and see that the LORD [is] good: blessed [is] the man [that] trusteth in him. 9 O fear the LORD, ye his saints: for [there is] no want to them that fear him. 10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the LORD shall not want any good [thing]. 11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the LORD. 12 What man [is he that] desireth life, [and] loveth [many] days, that he may see good? 13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile. 14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it. 15 The eyes of the LORD [are] upon the righteous, and his ears [are open] unto their cry. 16 The face of the LORD [is] against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth. 17 [The righteous] cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles. 18 The LORD [is] nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit. 19 Many [are] the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all. 20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken. 21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate. 22 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate. King James Version1 By David, in his changing his behaviour before Abimelech, and he driveth him away, and he goeth. I do bless Jehovah at all times, Continually His praise [is] in my mouth. 2 In Jehovah doth my soul boast herself, Hear do the humble and rejoice. 3 Ascribe ye greatness to Jehovah with me, And we exalt His name together. 4 I sought Jehovah, and He answered me, And from all my fears did deliver me. 5 They looked expectingly unto Him, And they became bright, And their faces are not ashamed. 6 This poor [one] called, and Jehovah heard, And from all his distresses saved him. 7 A messenger of Jehovah is encamping, Round about those who fear Him, And He armeth them. 8 Taste ye and see that Jehovah [is] good, O the happiness of the man who trusteth in Him. 9 Fear Jehovah, ye His holy ones, For there is no lack to those fearing Him. 10 Young lions have lacked and been hungry, And those seeking Jehovah lack not any good, 11 Come ye, children, hearken to me, The fear of Jehovah I do teach you. 12 Who [is] the man that is desiring life? Loving days to see good? 13 Keep thy tongue from evil, And thy lips from speaking deceit. 14 Turn aside from evil and do good, Seek peace and pursue it. 15 The eyes of Jehovah [are] unto the righteous, And His ears unto their cry. 16 (The face of Jehovah [is] on doers of evil, To cut off from earth their memorial.) 17 They cried, and Jehovah heard, And from all their distresses delivered them. 18 Near [is] Jehovah to the broken of heart, And the bruised of spirit He saveth. 19 Many [are] the evils of the righteous, Out of them all doth Jehovah deliver him. 20 He is keeping all his bones, One of them hath not been broken. 21 Evil doth put to death the wicked, And those hating the righteous are desolate. 22 Jehovah redeemeth the soul of His servants, And none trusting in Him are desolate! |
