Psalm 34:11-18

11Come, my children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the LORD .

12Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days,

13keep your tongue from evil and your lips from telling lies.

14Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.

15The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry;

16but the face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to blot out their name from the earth.

17The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles.

18The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
