Psalms 34:12-22
-
12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?
-
13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
-
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
-
15 The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
-
16 The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
-
17 The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
-
18 The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
-
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
-
20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
-
21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
-
22 The LORD redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.
