Psalms 3

3:1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. LORD,
how are they multiplied that trouble me? many [are] they that
rise up against me.
3:2 Many [there are] who say of my soul, [There is] no help for
him in God. Selah.
3:3 But thou, O LORD, [art] a shield for me; my glory, and the
lifter up of my head.
3:4 I cried to the LORD with my voice, and he heard me from his
holy hill. Selah.
3:5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained
me.
3:6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have
set [themselves] against me on all sides.
3:7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all
my enemies [upon] the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of
the ungodly.
3:8 Salvation [belongeth] to the LORD: thy blessing [is] upon
thy people. Selah.
