Psalms 34:1-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 34
1 I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. 2My soul will make its boast in the Lord; The humble will hear it and rejoice. 3Exalt the Lord with me, And let’s exalt His name together. 4I sought the Lord and He answered me, And rescued me from all my fears. 5They looked to Him and were radiant, And their faces will never be ashamed. 6This wretched man cried out, and the Lord heard him, And saved him out of all his troubles. 7The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him, And rescues them. 8Taste and see that the Lord is good; How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him! 9Fear the Lord, you His saints; For to those who fear Him there is no lack of anything.King James Version

1Concerning David, when he pretended to be insane in the presence of Abimelech, who drove him out, and he departed. I will bless the Lord at all times; his praise will always be on my lips. 2I will boast in the Lord; the humble will hear and be glad.
3Proclaim the Lord’s greatness with me; let us exalt his name together.
4I sought the Lord, and he answered me and rescued me from all my fears.
5Those who look to him are radiant with joy; their faces will never be ashamed.
6This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him from all his troubles.

1 I will praise the Lord at all times. I will constantly speak his praises. 2I will boast only in the Lord; let all who are helpless take heart. 3Come, let us tell of the Lord’s greatness; let us exalt his name together.
4I prayed to the Lord, and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears.
5Those who look to him for help will be radiant with joy; no shadow of shame will darken their faces.
6In my desperation I prayed, and the Lord listened; he saved me from all my troubles.
7For the angel of the Lord is a guard; he surrounds and defends all who fear him.
