| 1 | A psalm of David, written when he fled from his son Absalom. LORD, how numerous are my enemies! Many attack 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 say about me, |God will not deliver him.| (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 that protects me; you are my glory and the one who restores me. | 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 | To the LORD I cried out, and he answered me from his holy hill. (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 rested and slept; I awoke, for the LORD protects 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 am not afraid of the multitude of people who attack me from all directions. | 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 | Rise up, LORD! Deliver me, my God! Yes, you will strike all my enemies on the jaw; you will break 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 | The LORD delivers; you show favor to 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. | |
