Psalms 3

A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son.

1YhwhH3068, how are they increasedH7231 that troubleH6862 me! manyH7227 are they that rise upH6965 against me.

2ManyH7227 there be which sayH559 of my soulH5315, There is no helpH3444 for him in GodH430. SelahH5542.

3But thou, O YhwhH3068, art a shieldH4043 for me; my gloryH3519, and the lifter upH7311 of mine headH7218.1

4I criedH7121 unto YhwhH3068 with my voiceH6963, and he heardH6030 me out of his holyH6944 hillH2022. SelahH5542.

5I laid me downH7901 and sleptH3462; I awakedH6974; for YhwhH3068 sustainedH5564 me.

6I will not be afraidH3372 of ten thousandsH7233 of peopleH5971, that have setH7896 themselves against me round aboutH5439.

7AriseH6965, O YhwhH3068; saveH3467 me, O my GodH430: for thou hast smittenH5221 all mine enemiesH341 upon the cheek boneH3895; thou hast brokenH7665 the teethH8127 of the ungodlyH7563.

8SalvationH3444 belongeth unto YhwhH3068: thy blessingH1293 is upon thy peopleH5971. SelahH5542.
