Psalms 34:10 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 34:10

The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger
According to Apollinarius,

``the needy rich, whom famine presses;''

see ( Job 4:10 Job 4:11 ) ;

but they that seek the Lord;
by prayer, diligently, with their whole heart, and in the sincerity of their souls; the Targum is, "that seek the doctrine of the Lord"; that seek instruction from him, and to be taught by him: these

shall not want any good [thing]:
which God has purposed to bestow upon them, which he has promised unto them, and provided for them; nor any thing that shall be for their good.

Psalms 34:10 In-Context

8 Taste and see how good the LORD is! The one who takes refuge in him is truly happy!
9 You who are the LORD's holy ones, honor him, because those who honor him don't lack a thing.
10 Even strong young lions go without and get hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.
11 Come, children, listen to me. Let me teach you how to honor the LORD:
12 Do you love life; do you relish the chance to enjoy good things?
