< Psalmorum 3 >

1 Psalmus David, cum fugeret a facie Absalom filii sui. [Domine, quid multiplicati sunt qui tribulant me? Multi insurgunt adversum me;
A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many [are] they that rise up against me.
2 multi dicunt animæ meæ: Non est salus ipsi in Deo ejus.
Many [there be] which say of my soul, [There is] no help for him in God. (Selah)
3 Tu autem Domine, susceptor meus es, gloria mea, et exaltans caput meum.
But thou, O LORD, [art] a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
4 Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi; et exaudivit me de monte sancto suo.
I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. (Selah)
5 Ego dormivi, et soporatus sum; et exsurrexi, quia Dominus suscepit me.
I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
6 Non timebo millia populi circumdantis me. Exsurge, Domine; salvum me fac, Deus meus.
I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set [themselves] against me round about.
7 Quoniam tu percussisti omnes adversantes mihi sine causa; dentes peccatorum contrivisti.
Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies [upon] the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8 Domini est salus; et super populum tuum benedictio tua.]
Salvation [belongeth] unto the LORD: thy blessing [is] upon thy people. (Selah)
