Psalms 34:6, 1, 3-5, 2, 7-11

This oppressed man cried out and the LORD heard; he saved him from all his troubles.

I will praise the LORD at all times; my mouth will continually praise him.

Magnify the LORD with me! Let’s praise his name together! I sought the LORD’s help and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him for help are happy; their faces are not ashamed.

I will boast in the LORD; let the oppressed hear and rejoice!

The LORD’s angel camps around the LORD’s loyal followers and delivers them. Taste and see that the LORD is good! How blessed is the onewho takes shelter in him! Remain loyal to the LORD, you chosen people of his, for his loyal followers lack nothing! Even young lions sometimes lack food and are hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing. Come children! Listen to me! I will teach you what it means to fear the LORD.
