1A Psalm of David, when he changed his countenance before Abimelech; and he let him go, and he departed.
2I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall be continually in my mouth.
3My soul shall boast herself in the Lord: let the meek hear, and rejoice.
4Magnify ye the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.
5I sought the Lord diligently, and he hearkened to me, and delivered me from all my sojournings.
6Draw near to him, and be enlightened: and your faces shall not by any means be ashamed.
7This poor man cried, and the Lord hearkened to him, and delivered him out of all his afflictions.
8The angel of the Lord will encamp round about them that fear him, and will deliver them.
9Taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man who hopes in him.
10Fear the Lord, all ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
11The rich have become poor and hungry: but they that seek the Lord diligently shall not want any good thing. Pause.
12Come, ye children, hear me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
13What man is there that desires life, loving to see good days?
14Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
15Turn away from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
