Psalm 34:6-8
New Catholic Bible
6 Look to him and you will be radiant;
your faces will never be covered with shame.
7 In my anguish[a] I cried out;
the Lord heard my plea,
and I was saved from all my troubles.
8 The angel of the Lord[b] encamps around those who fear God,
and he delivers them.
Footnotes
- Psalm 34:7 In my anguish: literally, “this poor man.” The word “poor” is usually applied to one who depends completely on God for his deliverance and his very life. See also note on Ps 22:27.
- Psalm 34:8 Angel of the Lord: i.e., the Lord’s protection or the presence of God. However, such protection, although promised by the Lord (see Ps 91:11; Gen 32:2; 2 Ki 6:17; Mt 4:5f), is not automatic; it depends on one’s allegiance to the covenant—the “fear of the Lord”—entailing the practices mentioned in verses 12-15.
