The Happiness of Those Who Trust in God



"1 I will praise the LORD at all times;
His praise shall continually be in my
mouth.
2 My soul shall make its boast in the
LORD;
The humble shall hear of it and be
glad.
3 Oh, magnify the LORD with me,
And let us exalt His name together.

4 I sought the LORD, and He heard me,
And delivered me from all my fears.
5 They looked to Him and were
radiant,
And their faces were not ashamed.

8 Oh, taste and see that the LORD is
good.
Blessed is the man who trust in Him!
9 Oh, fear the LORD, you His saints!
There is no want to those who fear
Him.

15 The eyes of the LORD are on the
rightous,
And His ears are open to their cry.
16 The face of the LORD is against those
who do evil,
To cut off the remembrance of them
from the earth.
17 The righteous cry out, and the LORD
hears,
And delivers them out of all their
troubles.
18 The LORD is near to those who have a
broken heart,
And saves such as have a contrite
spirit.
19 Many are the afflictions of the
righteous,
But the LORD delivers him out of them
all.
20 He guards all his bones;
Not one of them is broken.
21 Evil shall slay the wicked,
And those who hate the righteous
shall be condemned.
22 The LORD redeems the soul of His
servants,
And none of those who trust in Him
shall be condemned." - Psalm 34:1-5, 8-9, 15-22
