Psalms [Praises] 34:4-17

⁴I sought Adonai , and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.

⁵They looked to him, and were radiant. Their faces shall never be covered with shame.

⁶This poor man cried, and Adonai sh'ma ·heard obeyed· him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

⁷Ha mal'ak Yahweh The Angel of He sustains breathing encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them.

⁸Oh taste and see that Adonai is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.

⁹Oh fear Adonai , you his saints, for there is no lack with those who fear him.

¹⁰The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger, but those who seek Adonai shall not lack any good thing.

¹¹Come, you children, sh'ma ·hear obey· unto me. I will teach you the fear of Adonai .

¹²Who of you takes pleasure in living? Who 'ahav ·affectionately loves· a long life to see good things?

¹³If you do, keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from deceiving talk;

¹⁴turn from evil, and do good. Seek peace, and fervently pursue it!

¹⁵For Adonai ’s eyes are toward the upright. His ears listen to their prayers.

¹⁶But Adonai ’s face is against those who do evil, to cut off their memory from the earth.

¹⁷The upright cry, and Adonai sh'ma ·hears obeys·, and delivers them out of all their troubles.
