1  I will bless the Lord ^pat all times;

his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

2  My soul ^qmakes its boast in the Lord;

let the humble hear and ^rbe glad.

3  Oh, ^smagnify the Lord with me,

and let us exalt his name together!

4  I ^tsought the Lord, and he answered me

and delivered me from all my fears.

5  Those who look to him are ^uradiant,

and their faces shall never be ashamed.

6  ^vThis poor man cried, and the Lord heard him

and ^wsaved him out of all his troubles.

7  ^xThe angel of the Lord ^yencamps

around those who fear him, and delivers them.

8  Oh, ^ztaste and see that ^athe Lord is good!

^bBlessed is the man who takes refuge in him!

9  Oh, fear the Lord, you his saints,

for those who fear him have no lack!

10  ^cThe young lions suffer want and hunger;

but those who ^dseek the Lord lack no good thing.

22  The Lord ^wredeems the life of his servants;

none of those who take refuge in him will be ^xcondemned.
