1A Psalm of David, when he changed his behavior before Abimelech; and he drove him away, and he went. I will bless Jehovah at all times; His praise shall always be in my mouth.
2My soul shall make its boast in Jehovah; the humble shall hear and be glad.
3O magnify Jehovah with me; and let us exalt His name together.
4I sought Jehovah, and He answered me, and delivered me out of all my fear.
5They looked to Him and and their faces shone and were not ashamed.
6This humble one cried; and Jehovah heard, and saved him out of all his distress.
7The Angel of Jehovah camps around those who fear Him, and He sets them free.
8Taste and see that Jehovah is good; blessed is the man seeking refuge in Him.

11My sons, come, listen to Me; I will make known to you the fear of Jehovah.
12Who is the man who desires life, who loves days in order to see good?
13Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking guile;
14turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.
15The eyes of Jehovah are on the righteous ones and His ears are open to their cry.
16The face of Jehovah is against doers of evil, to cut off their memory from the earth.
17The righteous ones cry, and Jehovah hears; and He saves them out of all their distresses.
18Jehovah is near to the broken of heart; and He saves the crushed of spirit.
19Many are the evils of the righteous one, but Jehovah plucks him out of them all,
20keeping all his bones; not one of them is broken.

22Jehovah is redeeming the soul of His servants; and none of those who trust in Him shall be guilty.
