Psalms 3
1 LORD, how are they
increased that
trouble me!
many are they that rise
up against me.
2 Many there be which
say of my
soul, There is no
help for him in
God. Selah. 3 But thou, O
LORD, art a
shield for me; my
glory, and the lifter
up of mine
head. 4 I
cried unto the
LORD with my
voice, and he
heard me out of his
holy hill. Selah. 5 I laid me
down and
slept; I
awaked; for the
LORD sustained me.
6 I will not be
afraid of ten
thousands of
people, that have
set themselves against me round
about. 7 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 Salvation belongeth unto the
LORD: thy
blessing is upon thy
people. Selah.
