1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from the presence of his son Abessalom. O Lord, why are they that afflict me multiplied? many rise 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 say concerning my soul, There is no deliverance for him in his God. Pause. 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 thou, O Lord, art my helper: my glory, and the one that lifts up 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 cried to the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy mountain. Pause. 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 awaked; for the Lord will help 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 beset me round about. 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; deliver me, my God: for thou hast smitten all who were without cause mine enemies; thou hast broken the teeth of sinners. 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 Deliverance is the Lord's, and thy blessing is upon thy people. Salvation belongs to the LORD; your blessing be on your people! Selah From the LORD comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people.
