1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom. LORD, how my enemies have increased! Many are rising up against me. O LORD, how many are my foes! Many are rising against me; A psalm of David. When he fled from his son Absalom. LORD, how many are my foes! How many rise up against me!
2 Many are saying of my soul, “There is no salvation for him in God.” Selah many are saying of my soul, “There is no salvation for him in God.” Selah Many are saying of me, “God will not deliver him.”
3 But You, LORD, are a shield around me, My glory, and the One who lifts my head. But you, O LORD, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head. But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high.
4 I was crying out to the LORD with my voice, And He answered me from His holy mountain. Selah I cried aloud to the LORD, and he answered me from his holy hill. Selah I call out to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain.
5 I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the LORD sustains me. I lay down and slept; I woke again, for the LORD sustained me. I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people Who have set themselves against me all around. I will not be afraid of many thousands of people who have set themselves against me all around. I will not fear though tens of thousands assail me on every side.
7 Arise, LORD; save me, my God! For You have struck all my enemies on the cheek; You have shattered the teeth of the wicked. Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! For you strike all my enemies on the cheek; you break the teeth of the wicked. Arise, LORD! Deliver me, my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked.
8 Salvation belongs to the LORD; May Your blessing be upon Your people! Selah Salvation belongs to the LORD; your blessing be on your people! Selah From the LORD comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people.
