12 What man is he that desireth life, And loveth [many] days, that he may see good?
13 Keep thy tongue from evil, And thy lips from speaking guile.
14 Depart from evil, and do good; Seek peace, and pursue it.
15 The eyes of Jehovah are toward the righteous, And his ears are [open] unto their cry.
16 The face of Jehovah is against them that do evil, To cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
17 [The righteous] cried, and Jehovah heard, And delivered them out of all their troubles.
18 Jehovah is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart, And saveth such as are of a contrite spirit.
