6 In my desperation I prayed, and the lord listened;he saved me from all my troubles.
7 For the angel of the lord is a guard;he surrounds and defends all who fear him.
8 Taste and see that the lord is good.Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him!
9 Fear the lord, you his godly people,for those who fear him will have all they need.
10 Even strong young lions sometimes go hungry,but those who trust in the lord will lack no good thing.
11 Come, my children, and listen to me,and I will teach you to fear the lord.
12 Does anyone want to live a lifethat is long and prosperous?
