Psalms 3

The Complete Jewish Bible CJB

1 A psalm of David, when he fled from Avshalom his son: ADONAI, how many enemies I have! How countless are those attacking me;

2 how countless those who say of me, "There is no salvation for him in God." (Selah)

3 But you, ADONAI, are a shield for me; you are my glory, you lift my head high.

4 With my voice I call out to ADONAI, and he answers me from his holy hill. (Selah)

5 I lie down and sleep, then wake up again, because ADONAI sustains me.

6 I am not afraid of the tens of thousands set against me on every side.

7 Rise up, ADONAI! Save me, my God! For you slap all my enemies in the face, you smash the teeth of the wicked.

8 Victory comes from ADONAI; may your blessing rest on your people. (Selah)

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 <A Psalm. Of David. When he went in flight from Absalom his son.> Lord, how greatly are they increased who make attacks on me! in great numbers they come against me.

2 Unnumbered are those who say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. (Selah.)

3 But your strength, O Lord, is round me, you are my glory and the lifter up of my head.

4 I send up a cry to the Lord with my voice, and he gives me an answer from his holy hill. (Selah.)

5 I took my rest in sleep, and then again I was awake; for the Lord was my support.

6 I will have no fear, though ten thousand have come round me, putting themselves against me.

7 Come to me, Lord; keep me safe, O my God; for you have given all my haters blows on their face-bones; the teeth of the evil-doers have been broken by you.

8 Salvation comes from the Lord; your blessing is on your people. (Selah.)
