| 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 | And Thou, O Jehovah, art a shield for me, My honour, and lifter up of 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 | My voice is unto Jehovah: I call: And He answereth 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. | |
