Psalms 34:14-22

14Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking treachery.

15Depart from evil and do good. Seek shalom and pursue it.

16The eyes of Adonai are on the righteous, and His ears are attentive to their cry.

17The face of Adonai is against evildoers, to cut off the memory of them from the earth.

18The righteous cry out and Adonai hears, and delivers them from all their troubles.

19Adonai is close to the brokenhearted, and saves those crushed in spirit.

20Many are the distresses of the righteous, but Adonai delivers him out of them all.

21He keeps all his bones— not one of them is broken.

22Evil kills the wicked— those who hate the righteous will be held guilty.
