Psalms 3
1 A psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom, his son.
2 LORD, how many are my adversaries! Many rise up against me.
3 Many say about me, “There is no salvation for him in God.” Selah.
4 But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, the one who lifts my head.
5 I call aloud to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain. Selah.
6 I lay down and slept; I woke up, because the LORD sustains me.
7 I am not afraid of the thousands of people who have surrounded me and set themselves against me.
8 Rise up, LORD! Save me, my God! For you struck all my enemies on the cheek and broke the teeth of the wicked.
9 Salvation comes from the LORD; your blessing is upon your people. Selah.
