< Psalms 3 >
1 Jehovah, how my adversaries are increased! Many are those who rise up against me.
2 Many there are who say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. (Selah)
3 But thou, O Jehovah, are a shield about me, my glory and he who lifts up of my head.
4 I cry to Jehovah with my voice, and he answers me out of his holy hill. (Selah)
5 I laid down and slept. I awoke, for Jehovah sustains me.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of the people who have set themselves against me round about.
7 Arise, O Jehovah. Save me, O my God. For thou have smitten all my enemies upon the cheek bone. Thou have broken the teeth of the wicked.
8 Salvation belongs to Jehovah. Thy blessing be upon thy people. (Selah)
