Psalm 34
I will bless the Lord continually
: his praise shall be always in my mouth.
Let my soul boast of the Lord
: the humble shall hear it and rejoice.
O praise the Lord with me
: let us exalt his name together.
For I sought the Lord’s help and he answered
: and he freed me from all my fears.
Look towards him and be bright with joy
: your faces shall not be ashamed.
Here is a wretch who cried, and the Lord heard him
: and saved him from all his troubles.
The angel of the Lord encamps round those who fear him
: and delivers them in their need.
O taste and see that the Lord is good
: happy the man who hides in him!
Fear the Lord, all you his holy ones
: for those who fear him never lack.
Lions may suffer want and go hungry
: but those who seek the Lord lack nothing good.
The Lord ransoms the lives of his servants
: and none who hide in him will be destroyed.
