seek peace and pursue it.
PS 34:15 The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous
and his ears are attentive to their cry;
PS 34:16 the face of the LORD is against those who do evil,
to cut off the memory of them from the earth.
PS 34:17 The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them;
he delivers them from all their troubles.
PS 34:18 The LORD is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
PS 34:19 A righteous man may have many troubles,
but the LORD delivers him from them all;
PS 34:20 he protects all his bones,
not one of them will be broken.
PS 34:21 Evil will slay the wicked;
the foes of the righteous will be condemned.
PS 34:22 The LORD redeems his servants;
no one will be condemned who takes refuge in him.

and delight in his salvation.

"Who is like you, O LORD?
You rescue the poor from those too strong for them,
the poor and needy from those who rob them."
