Psalms 34 THANKSGIVING TO GOD WHO DELIVERS THE JUST

KING JAMES BIBLE

I WILL bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
3 O 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 unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not 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 encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
8 O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
9 O fear the Lord, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not want any good thing.
11 Come, ye children, hearken unto me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
12 What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?
13 Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
14 Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.
15 The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry.
16 The face of the Lord is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.
18 The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.
20 He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.
21 Evil shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shall be desolate.
22 The Lord redeemeth the soul of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall be desolate.

KING JAMES 1611

1A Psalme of Dauid, when he changed his behauiour before Abimelech: who droue him away & he departed. I will blesse the Lord at all times: his prayse shall continually bee in my mouth.

2My soule shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall heare thereof, and be glad.

3O magnifie the Lord with me, and let vs exalt his name together.

4I sought the Lord, and hee heard me; and deliuered mee from all my feares.

5They looked vnto him, and were lightned: and their faces were not ashamed.

6This poore man cried, and the Lord heard him; and saued him out of all his troubles.

7The Angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that feare him, and deliuereth them.

8O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.

9O feare the Lord yee his Saints: for there is no want to them that feare him.

10The young lyons doe lacke, and suffer hunger: but they that seeke the Lord, shall not want any good thing.

11Come yee children, hearken vnto me: I will teach you the feare of the Lord.

12What man is hee that desireth life; and loueth many dayes, that he may see good?

13Keepe thy tongue from euill, and thy lippes from speaking guile.

14Depart from euill, and doe good: seeke peace and pursue it.

15The eies of the Lord are vpon the righteous; and his eares are open vnto their crie.

16The face of the Lord is against them that doe euill; to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

17The righteous crie, and the Lord heareth; and deliuereth them out of all their troubles.

18The Lord is nigh vnto them that are of a broken heart: and saueth such as be of a contrite spirit.

19Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord deliuereth him out of them all.

20He keepeth all his bones: not one of them is broken.

21Euill shall slay the wicked: and they that hate the righteous shalbe desolate.

22The Lord redeemech the soule of his seruants: and none of them that trust in him, shalbe desolate.

THE NEW AMERICAN BIBLE

1 Of David, when he feigned madness before Abimelech, who drove him out and he went away.

2 I will bless the LORD at all times; his praise shall be always in my mouth.

3 My soul will glory in the LORD; let the poor hear and be glad.

4 Magnify the LORD with me; and let us exalt his name together.

5 I sought the LORD, and he answered me, delivered me from all my fears.

6 Look to him and be radiant, and your faces may not blush for shame.

7 This poor one cried out and the LORD heard, and from all his distress he saved him.

8 The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and he saves them.

9Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the stalwart one who takes refuge in him.

10 Fear the LORD, you his holy ones; nothing is lacking to those who fear him.

11 The rich grow poor and go hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.

12 Come, children, listen to me; I will teach you fear of the LORD.

13 Who is the man who delights in life, who loves to see the good days?

14 Keep your tongue from evil, your lips from speaking lies.

15Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.

16 The eyes of the LORD are directed toward the righteous and his ears toward their cry.

17 The LORD’s face is against evildoers to wipe out their memory from the earth.

18 The righteous cry out, the LORD hears and he rescues them from all their afflictions.

19 The LORD is close to the brokenhearted, saves those whose spirit is crushed.

20 Many are the troubles of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him from them all.

21 He watches over all his bones; not one of them shall be broken.

22 Evil will slay the wicked; those who hate the righteous are condemned.

23 The LORD is the redeemer of the souls of his servants; and none are condemned who take refuge in him.

COMMENTARIE

This Psalm of joy is believed to be by David, and he calls for believers to praise the Lord for He is right and His works are done in truth, v 6. Breath in that verse means Spirit. Then he goes ahead and tells how the Lord spoke and creation took place. (The word uni is one and verse is  word, so universe is one word from God.) Verse 7 speaks of the storehouses which God released in, Gen. 7:6. Verse 12 is inscribed high on the wall in the Missouri state capitol building in Jefferson City. Armies of human strength or horses cannot procure the deliverance which the Lord does. Verses 18 -22 are a beautiful reaffirmation of the Lord’s deliverance for those who trust in Him.
