Psalms 34:9-15

⁹Show your reverence for the Lord, you who are his holy people, for those who respect him have everything they need.

¹⁰Lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who trust in the Lord have all that is good.

¹¹Children, listen to me! I will teach you how to respect the Lord.

¹²Who of you wants to live a long and happy life?

¹³Then don't let your tongue speak evil, or your lips tell lies.

¹⁴Reject what is evil, do what is good. Look for peace, and work to make it a reality.

¹⁵The Lord watches over those who do right, and he hears when they cry for help.
