1大衛的詩，是他在亞比米勒面前裝瘋，被驅逐離去時作的。我要時常稱頌耶和華，讚美他的話必常在我口中。

11Come, you children, listen to me. I will teach you the fear of Yahweh.
12誰喜愛生命，愛慕長壽，享受美福，
12Who is someone who desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good?
13就要禁止舌頭不出惡言，嘴唇不說詭詐的話；
13Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking lies.
14也要離惡行善，尋找並追求和睦。
14Depart from evil, and do good. seek peace, and pursue it.

18Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit.
19義人雖有許多苦難，但耶和華搭救他脫離這一切。
19Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Yahweh delivers him out of them all.
20耶和華保全他一身的骨頭，連一根也不容折斷。
20He protects all of his bones. Not one of them is broken.
21惡人必被惡害死；憎恨義人的，必被定罪。
21Evil shall kill the wicked. Those who hate the righteous shall be condemned.
22耶和華救贖他僕人的性命；凡是投靠他的，必不被定罪。
22Yahweh redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.
