Psalms - Chapter 3 | English Standard Version

  • 1. A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. O LORD, how many are my foes! Many are rising against me;
  • 2. many are saying of my soul, there is no salvation for him in God. Selah.
  • 3. But you, O LORD, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head.
  • 4. I cried aloud to the LORD, and he answered me from his holy hill. Selah.
  • 5. I lay down and slept; I woke again, for the LORD sustained me.
  • 6. I will not be afraid of many thousands of people who have set themselves against me all around.
  • 7. Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! For you strike all my enemies on the cheek; you break the teeth of the wicked.
  • 8. Salvation belongs to the LORD; your blessing be on your people! Selah.
