Of David, wen e do like say im craze for front of Abimelech, wey drive am comot, and e waka go.
David write dis one after e escape from Abimelech as e pretend say e don craze. E invite everybody make dem test our Papa by demself — taste and see — then e teach am plain: guard your tongue, pursue peace. Our Papa dey stay near di people wey dia heart don break, no be only di ones wey e don rescue.
34 1I go bless our Papa all di time; im praise go dey for my mouth evrytime.
2My soul dey brag inside our Papa; make di humble people hear am and dey rejoice. 3Make una join me magnify our Papa; make we lift im name up together.
4I look for our Papa, and e answer me; e comot me from all my fear. 5Dem wey dey look im side dey shine; shame no go ever catch dia face. 6Dis poor man cry out, and our Papa hear am; e save am from all im troubles. 7Di angel of our Papa dey camp round dem wey dey fear am, and e dey rescue dem.
8Taste am and see say our Papa good; blessing dey for di person wey dey hide inside am. 9Fear our Papa, una im holy people, bicos dem wey dey fear am no dey lack anytin. 10Di young lions dey hungry and dey lack, but dem wey dey seek our Papa no dey lack any good tin.
11Come, pikin dem, hear me; I go teach una how to fear our Papa. 12Na who be di person wey want life and dey love plenty good days? 13Keep your tongue from bad tin and your mouth from talkin lie. 14Turn from bad tin and do good; seek peace and run after am.
15Di eyes of our Papa dey on di correct-and-holy people, and im ears open to dia cry. 16Di face of our Papa dey against dem wey dey do bad tin, to rub dem memory comot from di earth. 17Di correct-and-holy people cry out, and our Papa hear; e comot dem from all dia troubles. 18Our Papa dey near dem wey dia heart don break; e save dem wey dia spirit don crush.
19Di correct-and-holy person dey face plenty suffer-suffer, but our Papa dey comot am from all of dem. 20Our Papa dey guard all di bones of di correct-and-holy person; not even one of dem go break.
21Bad tin go kill di wicked person, and dem wey hate di correct-and-holy person go dey condemn. 22Our Papa dey redeem di soul of im servants; nobody wey dey hide inside am go dey condemn.
