Psalms 34:14-22

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

15The eyes of Yhwh are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.

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

17The righteous cry, And Yhwh heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.

18Yhwh is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.12

19Many are the afflictions of the righteous: But Yhwh 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 desolate.3

22Yhwh redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.4
