The text of the psalm
לְדָוִד בְּשַׁנּוֹתוֹ אֶת־טַעְמוֹ לִפְנֵי אֲבִימֶלֶךְ וַיְגָרֲשֵׁהוּ וַיֵּלַֽךְ׃
[A Psalm] of David; when he changed his demeanour before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed.
אֲבָרֲכָה אֶת־יְהוָה בְּכָל־עֵת תָּמִיד תְּהִלָּתוֹ בְּפִֽי׃
I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
בַּיהוָה תִּתְהַלֵּל נַפְשִׁי יִשְׁמְעוּ עֲנָוִים וְיִשְׂמָֽחוּ׃
My soul shall glory in the LORD; The humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
גַּדְּלוּ לַיהוָה אִתִּי וּנְרוֹמְמָה שְׁמוֹ יַחְדָּֽו׃
O magnify the LORD with me, And let us exalt His name together.
דָּרַשְׁתִּי אֶת־יְהוָה וְעָנָנִי וּמִכָּל־מְגוּרוֹתַי הִצִּילָֽנִי׃
I sought the LORD, and He answered me, And delivered me from all my fears.
הִבִּיטוּ אֵלָיו וְנָהָרוּ וּפְנֵיהֶם אַל־יֶחְפָּֽרוּ׃
They looked unto Him, and were radiant; And their faces shall never be abashed.
זֶה עָנִי קָרָא וַיהוָה שָׁמֵעַ וּמִכָּל־צָרוֹתָיו הוֹשִׁיעֽוֹ׃
This poor man cried, and the LORD heard, And saved him out of all his troubles.
חֹנֶה מַלְאַךְ־יְהוָה סָבִיב לִירֵאָיו וַֽיְחַלְּצֵֽם׃
The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear Him, And delivereth them.
טַעֲמוּ וּרְאוּ כִּי־טוֹב יְהוָה אַשְׁרֵי הַגֶּבֶר יֶחֱסֶה־בּֽוֹ׃
O consider and see that the LORD is good; Happy is the man that taketh refuge in Him.
יְראוּ אֶת־יְהוָה קְדֹשָׁיו כִּי־אֵין מַחְסוֹר לִירֵאָֽיו׃
O fear the LORD, ye His holy ones; For there is no want to them that fear Him.
כְּפִירִים רָשׁוּ וְרָעֵבוּ וְדֹרְשֵׁי יְהוָה לֹא־יַחְסְרוּ כָל־טֽוֹב׃
The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger; But they that seek the LORD want not any good thing.
לְכוּ־בָנִים שִׁמְעוּ־לִי יִרְאַת יְהוָה אֲלַמֶּדְכֶֽם׃
Come, ye children, hearken unto me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
מִי־הָאִישׁ הֶחָפֵץ חַיִּים אֹהֵב יָמִים לִרְאוֹת טֽוֹב׃
Who is the man that desireth life, and loveth days, That he may see good therein?
נְצֹר לְשׁוֹנְךָ מֵרָע וּשְׂפָתֶיךָ מִדַּבֵּר מִרְמָֽה׃
Keep thy tongue from evil, And thy lips from speaking guile.
סוּר מֵרָע וַעֲשֵׂה־טוֹב בַּקֵּשׁ שָׁלוֹם וְרָדְפֵֽהוּ׃
Depart from evil, and do good; Seek peace, and pursue it.
עֵינֵי יְהוָה אֶל־צַדִּיקִים וְאָזְנָיו אֶל־שַׁוְעָתָֽם׃
The eyes of the LORD are toward the righteous, And His ears are open unto their cry.
פְּנֵי יְהוָה בְּעֹשֵׂי רָע לְהַכְרִית מֵאֶרֶץ זִכְרָֽם׃
The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
צָעֲקוּ וַיהוָה שָׁמֵעַ וּמִכָּל־צָרוֹתָם הִצִּילָֽם׃
They cried, and the LORD heard, And delivered them out of all their troubles.
קָרוֹב יְהוָה לְנִשְׁבְּרֵי־לֵב וְאֶת־דַּכְּאֵי־רוּחַ יוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃
The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart, And saveth such as are of a contrite spirit.
רַבּוֹת רָעוֹת צַדִּיק וּמִכֻּלָּם יַצִּילֶנּוּ יְהוָֽה׃
Many are the ills of the righteous, But the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
שֹׁמֵר כָּל־עַצְמוֹתָיו אַחַת מֵהֵנָּה לֹא נִשְׁבָּֽרָה׃
He keepeth all his bones; Not one of them is broken.
תְּמוֹתֵת רָשָׁע רָעָה וְשֹׂנְאֵי צַדִּיק יֶאְשָֽׁמוּ׃
Evil shall kill the wicked; And they that hate the righteous shall be held guilty.
פּוֹדֶה יְהוָה נֶפֶשׁ עֲבָדָיו וְלֹא יֶאְשְׁמוּ כָּל־הַחֹסִים בּֽוֹ׃
The LORD redeemeth the soul of His servants; And none of them that take refuge in Him shall be desolate.
