Psalms 3

DBY

NIV

1 {A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son.} Jehovah, how many are they that trouble me, many they that rise up against me!
1 LORD, how many are my foes! How many rise up against me!
2 Many say of my soul, There is no salvation for him in God. Selah.
2 Many are saying of me, “God will not deliver him.”
3 But thou, Jehovah, art a shield about me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
3 But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high.
4 With my voice will I call to Jehovah, and he will answer me from the hill of his holiness. Selah.
4 I call out to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain.
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked, for Jehovah sustaineth me.
5 I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.
6 I will not fear for myriads of the people that have set themselves against me round about.
6 I will not fear though tens of thousands assail me on every side.
7 Arise, Jehovah; save me, my God! For thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheekbone, thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked.
7 Arise, LORD! Deliver me, my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked.
8 Salvation is of Jehovah; thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.
8 From the LORD comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people.
