1To David, when he changed his mouth, or his word, before Abimelech, and he drove out David, and he went forth. The psalm of David, when he changed his cheer before Abimelech, and he left him (or and so he let him go), and he went away. I shall bless the Lord in all time; evermore his praising be in my mouth. (A song by David, when he changed his face, and his words, before Abimelech, who then drove out David or sent him away, and so he went forth. I shall always bless the Lord; his praises shall be in my mouth forevermore.)
2My soul shall be praised in the Lord; mild men hear, and be glad. (My soul shall have glory in the Lord; let the humble hear, and be glad.)
3Magnify ye the Lord with me; and enhance we his name into itself (or and let us exalt his name together).
4I sought the Lord, and he heard me; and he delivered me from all my tribulations (or and he rescued, or saved, me, from all of my troubles).
5Nigh ye to him, and be ye lightened, (or Go ye near to him, and ye shall shine with joy); and your faces shall not be shamed.
6This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him; and saved him from all his tribulations.
7The angel of the Lord sendeth in the compass of men dreading him; and he shall deliver them. (The angel of the Lord guardeth those who fear him or who revere him; and he rescueth them.)
8Taste ye, and see, for the Lord is sweet; blessed is the man, that hopeth in him. (Taste ye, and see, that the Lord is good; happy is the person, who trusteth in him.)
