स्तोत्र ग्रन्थ 34

1For David, when he changed his countenance before Achimelech, who dismissed him, and he went his way. [1 Kings 21]

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

3In the Lord shall my soul be praised: let the meek hear and rejoice.

4O magnify the Lord with me; and let us extol his name together.

5I sought the Lord, and he heard me; and he delivered me from all my troubles.

6Come ye to him and be enlightened: and your faces shall not be confounded.

7This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him: and saved him out of all his troubles.

8The angel of the Lord shall encamp round about them that fear him: and shall deliver them.

9O taste, and see that the Lord is sweet: blessed is the man that hopeth in him.

10Fear the Lord, all ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.

11The rich have wanted, and have suffered hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not be deprived of any good.

12Come, children, hearken to me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.

13Who is the man that desireth life: who loveth to see good days?

14Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.

15Turn away from evil and do good: seek after peace and pursue it.

16The eyes of the Lord are upon the just: and his ears unto their prayers.

17But the countenance of the Lord is against them that do evil things: to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.

18The just cried, and the Lord heard them: and delivered them out of all their troubles.

19The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a contrite heart: and he will save the humble of spirit.

20Many are the afflictions of the just; but out of them all will the Lord deliver them.

21The Lord keepeth all their bones, not one of them shall be broken.

22The death of the wicked is very evil: and they that hate the just shall be guilty.

23The Lord will redeem the souls of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall offend.

1Davidi, cum immutavit vultum suum coram Achimelech, et dimisit eum, et abiit.

2[Benedicam Dominum in omni tempore; semper laus ejus in ore meo.

3In Domino laudabitur anima mea: audiant mansueti, et lætentur.

4Magnificate Dominum mecum, et exaltemus nomen ejus in idipsum.

5Exquisivi Dominum, et exaudivit me; et ex omnibus tribulationibus meis eripuit me.

6Accedite ad eum, et illuminamini; et facies vestræ non confundentur.

7Iste pauper clamavit, et Dominus exaudivit eum, et de omnibus tribulationibus ejus salvavit eum.

8Immittet angelus Domini in circuitu timentium eum, et eripiet eos.

9Gustate et videte quoniam suavis est Dominus; beatus vir qui sperat in eo.

10Timete Dominum, omnes sancti ejus, quoniam non est inopia timentibus eum.

11Divites eguerunt, et esurierunt; inquirentes autem Dominum non minuentur omni bono.

12Venite, filii; audite me: timorem Domini docebo vos.

13Quis est homo qui vult vitam; diligit dies videre bonos?

14Prohibe linguam tuam a malo, et labia tua ne loquantur dolum.

15Diverte a malo, et fac bonum; inquire pacem, et persequere eam.

16Oculi Domini super justos, et aures ejus in preces eorum.

17Vultus autem Domini super facientes mala, ut perdat de terra memoriam eorum.

18Clamaverunt justi, et Dominus exaudivit eos; et ex omnibus tribulationibus eorum liberavit eos.

19Juxta est Dominus iis qui tribulato sunt corde, et humiles spiritu salvabit.

20Multæ tribulationes justorum; et de omnibus his liberabit eos Dominus.

21Custodit Dominus omnia ossa eorum: unum ex his non conteretur.

22Mors peccatorum pessima; et qui oderunt justum delinquent.

23Redimet Dominus animas servorum suorum, et non delinquent omnes qui sperant in eo.]

1To David, when he changed his appearance in the sight of Abimelech, and so he dismissed him, and he went away.

2I will bless the Lord at all times. His praise will be ever in my mouth.

3In the Lord, my soul will be praised. May the meek listen and rejoice.

4Magnify the Lord with me, and let us extol his name in itself.

5I sought the Lord, and he heeded me, and he carried me away from all my tribulations.

6Approach him and be enlightened, and your faces will not be confounded.

7This poor one cried out, and the Lord heeded him, and he saved him from all his tribulations.

8The Angel of the Lord will encamp around those who fear him, and he will rescue them.

9Taste and see that the Lord is sweet. Blessed is the man who hopes in him.

10Fear the Lord, all you his saints. For there is no destitution for those who fear him.

11The rich have been needy and hungry, but those who seek the Lord will not be deprived of any good thing.

12Come forward, sons. Listen to me. I will teach you the fear of the Lord.

13Which is the man who wills life, who chooses to see good days?

14Prohibit your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit.

15Turn away from evil, and do good. Inquire about peace, and pursue it.

16The eyes of the Lord are on the just, and his ears are with their prayers.

17But the countenance of the Lord is upon those who do evil, to perish the remembrance of them from the earth.

18The just cried out, and the Lord heard them, and he freed them from all their tribulations.

19The Lord is near to those who are troubled in heart, and he will save the humble in spirit.

20Many are the afflictions of the just, but from them all the Lord will free them.

21The Lord preserves all of their bones, not one of them shall be broken.

22The death of a sinner is very harmful, and those who hate the just will fare badly.

23The Lord will redeem the souls of his servants, and none of those who hope in him will fare badly.
