Taste and see that the Lord is good

(1 Samuel 21:8-15)
1
BY DAVID, IN HIS CHANGING HIS BEHAVIOR BEFORE ABIMELECH, AND HE DRIVES HIM AWAY, AND HE GOES. [ALEPH-BET] I bless YHWH at all times, || His praise [is] continually in my mouth.
2
In YHWH my soul boasts herself, || The humble hear and rejoice.
3
Ascribe greatness to YHWH with me, || And we exalt His Name together.
4
I sought YHWH, and He answered me, || And delivered me from all my fears.
5
They looked expectingly to Him, || And they became bright, || And their faces are not ashamed.
6
This poor [one] called, and YHWH heard, || And saved him from all his distresses.
7
A messenger of YHWH is encamping, || Around those who fear Him, || And He arms them.
8
Taste and see that YHWH [is] good, || O the blessedness of the man who trusts in Him.
9
Fear YHWH, you His holy ones, || For there is no lack to those fearing Him.
10
Young lions have lacked and been hungry, || And those seeking YHWH do not lack any good,
11
Come, children, listen to me, || I teach you the fear of YHWH.
12
Who [is] the man that is desiring life? Loving days to see good?
13
Keep your tongue from evil, || And your lips from speaking deceit.
14
Turn aside from evil and do good, || Seek peace and pursue it.
15
The eyes of YHWH [are] to the righteous, || And His ears to their cry.
16
(The face of YHWH [is] on doers of evil, || To cut off their memorial from earth.)
17
They cried, and YHWH heard, || And delivered them from all their distresses.
18
YHWH [is] near to the broken of heart, || And He saves the bruised of spirit.
19
Many [are] the afflictions of the righteous, || YHWH delivers him out of them all.
20
He is keeping all his bones, || Not one of them has been broken.
21
Evil puts the wicked to death, || And those hating the righteous are desolate.
22
YHWH redeems the soul of His servants, || And none trusting in Him are desolate!

Taste and see that the Lord is good

(1 Samuel 21:8-15)
1
(a) I will bless the LORD at all times. His praise will always be in my mouth.
2
My soul shall boast in the LORD. The humble shall hear of it and be glad.
3
Oh magnify the LORD with me. Let’s exalt his name together.
4
I sought the LORD, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.
5
They looked to him, and were radiant. Their faces shall never be covered with shame.
6
This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
7
The LORD’s angel encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them.
8
Oh taste and see that the LORD is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
9
Oh fear the LORD, you his saints, for there is no lack with those who fear him.
10
The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger, but those who seek the LORD shall not lack any good thing.
11
Come, you children, listen to me. I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
12
Who is someone who desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good?
13
Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking lies.
14
Depart from evil, and do good. Seek peace, and pursue it.
15
The LORD’s eyes are toward the righteous. His ears listen to their cry.
16
The LORD’s face is against those who do evil, to cut off their memory from the earth.
17
The righteous cry, 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 those who have a crushed spirit.
19
Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all.
20
He protects all of his bones. Not one of them is broken.
21
Evil shall kill the wicked. Those who hate the righteous shall be condemned.
22
The LORD redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.
