Psalms 3:1-8
A melody of David when he was fleeing from his son Abʹsa·lom.+
3 O Jehovah, why have my adversaries become so numerous?+
Why are so many rising up against me?+
2 Many are saying about me:*
“God will not save him.”+ (Selah)*
3 But you, O Jehovah, are a shield around me,+My glory+ and the One who lifts up my head.+
4 I will call aloud to Jehovah,And he will answer me from his holy mountain.+ (Selah)
5 I will lie down and sleep;And I will wake up in safety,For Jehovah continues to support me.+
6 I am not afraid of the tens of thousandsLined up against me on every side.+
7 Rise up, O Jehovah! Save me,+ O my God!
For you will strike all my enemies on the jaw;You will break the teeth of the wicked.+
8 Salvation belongs to Jehovah.+
Your blessing is upon your people. (Selah)
