Psalm 3

3:1

A Psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom. O LORD, how my foes have increased! How many rise up against me!

3:2

Many say of me, “God will not deliver him.” Selah

3:3

But You, O LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the One who lifts my head.

3:4

To the LORD I cry aloud, and He answers me from His holy mountain. Selah

3:5

I lie down and sleep; I wake again, for the LORD sustains me.

3:6

I will not fear the myriads set against me on every side.

3:7

Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked.

3:8

Salvation belongs to the LORD; may Your blessing be on Your people. Selah
