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.

11  ^eCome, O children, listen to me;

^fI will teach you the fear of the Lord.

12  ^gWhat man is there who desires life

and loves many days, that he may ^hsee good?

13  ⁱKeep your tongue from evil

and your lips from ^jspeaking deceit.

14  ^kTurn away from evil and do good;

seek peace and ^lpursue it.
