Psalms 34:15-22

15The 1eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous And His ears are open to their cry.16The 2face of the Lord is against evildoers, To 3cut off the memory of them from the earth.17The righteous 4cry, and the Lord hears And delivers them out of all their troubles.18The Lord 5is near to the 6brokenhearted And saves those who are 7 8crushed in spirit.

19 9Many are the 10afflictions of the righteous, But the Lord 11delivers him out of them all.20He keeps all his bones, 12Not one of them is broken.21 13Evil shall slay the wicked, And those who hate the righteous will be 14condemned.22The Lord 15redeems the soul of His servants, And none of those who 16take refuge in Him will be 17condemned.
