1  I will bless the Lord at all times;

his praise shall ^ccontinually be in my mouth.

2  My soul makes its ^dboast in the Lord;

^elet the humble hear and be glad.

3  Oh, magnify the Lord with me,

and let us exalt his name together!

4  I sought the Lord, and he answered me

and delivered me from all my fears.

5  Those who look to him are radiant,

and their faces shall never be ashamed.

6  This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him

and saved him out of all his troubles.

7  The angel of the Lord encamps

^faround those who fear him, and delivers them.

8  Oh, ^gtaste and see that the Lord is good!

^hBlessed is the man who takes refuge in him!

19  Many are the afflictions of the righteous,

but the Lord ^sdelivers him out of them all.

20  He keeps all his bones;

^tnot one of them is broken.

21  Affliction will slay the wicked,

and those who hate the righteous will be condemned.

22  The Lord redeems the life of his servants;

none of those who take refuge in him will be condemned.
