Psalms 34:13-22

¹³Keep thy tongue from evil, And thy lips from speaking guile.

¹⁴Depart from evil, and do good; Seek peace, and pursue it.

¹⁵The eyes of Jehovah are toward the righteous, And his ears are open unto their cry.

¹⁶The face of Jehovah is against them that do evil, To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

¹⁷The righteous cried, and Jehovah heard, And delivered them out of all their troubles.

¹⁸Jehovah is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart, And saveth such as are of a contrite spirit.

¹⁹Many are the afflictions of the righteous; But Jehovah delivereth him out of them all.

²⁰He keepeth all his bones: Not one of them is broken.

²¹Evil shall slay the wicked; And they that hate the righteous shall be condemned.

²²Jehovah redeemeth the soul of his servants; And none of them that take refuge in him shall be condemned.
