Psalms 3
1 The psalm of David when he fled from the face of his son Absalom. Why, O Lord, are they multiplied that afflict me? many are they who rise up against me.
| מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִד בְּבָרְחוֹ מִפְּנֵי ׀ אַבְשָׁלוֹם בְּנֽוֹ׃ יְהוָה מָֽה־רַבּוּ צָרָי רַבִּים קָמִים עָלָֽי׃ |
2 Many say to my soul: There is no salvation for him in his God.
| רַבִּים אֹמְרִים לְנַפְשִׁי אֵין יְֽשׁוּעָתָה לּוֹ בֵֽאלֹהִים סֶֽלָה׃ |
3 But thou, O Lord art my protector, my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
| וְאַתָּה יְהוָה מָגֵן בַּעֲדִי כְּבוֹדִי וּמֵרִים רֹאשִֽׁי׃ |
4 I have cried to the Lord with my voice: and he hath heard me from his holy hill.
| קוֹלִי אֶל־יְהוָה אֶקְרָא וַיַּֽעֲנֵנִי מֵהַר קָדְשׁוֹ סֶֽלָה׃ |
5 I have slept and taken my rest: and I have risen up, because the Lord hath protected me.
| אֲנִי שָׁכַבְתִּי וָֽאִישָׁנָה הֱקִיצוֹתִי כִּי יְהוָה יִסְמְכֵֽנִי׃ |
6 I will not fear thousands of the people, surrounding me: arise, O Lord; save me, O my God.
| לֹֽא־אִירָא מֵרִבְבוֹת עָם אֲשֶׁר סָבִיב שָׁתוּ עָלָֽי׃ |
7 For thou hast struck all them who are my adversaries without cause: thou hast broken the teeth of sinners.
| קוּמָה יְהוָה ׀ הוֹשִׁיעֵנִי אֱלֹהַי כִּֽי־הִכִּיתָ אֶת־כָּל־אֹיְבַי לֶחִי שִׁנֵּי רְשָׁעִים שִׁבַּֽרְתָּ׃ |
8 Salvation is of the Lord: and thy blessing is upon thy people.
| לַיהוָה הַיְשׁוּעָה עַֽל־עַמְּךָ בִרְכָתֶךָ סֶּֽלָה׃ |
