Psalms 34:6
4 I sought the LORD, and He answered me; He delivered me from all my fears.
5 Those who look to Him are radiant with joy; their faces shall never be ashamed.
This poor man called out, and the LORD heard him; He saved him from all his troubles.
7 The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, and he delivers them.
8 Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!
