Psalms 34:14

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 34:14. Depart from evil and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

A great deal packed away into a small compass there. There is the negative "Depart from evil," and the positive which must go with it, "Do good." And if you do not do good, you will soon do evil. And then there is that blessed precept "Seek peace." Hunt after it, if you cannot spy it out, and if it runs away from you, follow it - pursue it - hunt after it till you gain it. A peaceable life is a happy life.
