- 3Oh magnify the Lord with me. Let us exalt his name together.
- 4I sought the Lord, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.
- 5They looked to him, and were radiant. Their faces shall never be covered with shame.
- 6This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

- 8Oh taste and see that the Lord is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.

- 18The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit.
- 19Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all.
- 20He protects all of his bones. Not one of them is broken.
- 21Evil shall kill the wicked. Those who hate the righteous shall be condemned.
- 22The Lord redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.
