Psalms 34:1. 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.
Psalms 34:2 In Jehovah doth my soul boast herself, Hear do the humble and rejoice. Psalms 34:3 Ascribe ye greatness to Jehovah with me, And we exalt His name together. Psalms 34:4 I sought Jehovah, and He answered me, And from all my fears did deliver me.
Psalms 34:5 They looked expectingly unto Him, And they became bright, And their faces are not ashamed.

Psalms 34:15 The eyes of Jehovah [are] unto the righteous, And His ears unto their cry. Psalms 34:16 (The face of Jehovah [is] on doers of evil, To cut off from earth their memorial.) Psalms 34:17 They cried, and Jehovah heard, And from all their distresses delivered them.
Psalms 34:18 Near [is] Jehovah to the broken of heart, And the bruised of spirit He saveth. Psalms 34:19 Many [are] the evils of the righteous, Out of them all doth Jehovah deliver him. Psalms 34:20 He is keeping all his bones, One of them hath not been broken.
Psalms 34:21 Evil doth put to death the wicked, And those hating the righteous are desolate.
