A psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom
3
📚✭ LORD, how they are increased who trouble me!
Many are those who
rise up against me✭.
2 📚✭Many there are who
say of my soul,
“There is no help for him
in God. Selah
3 📚✭But you, O LORD, are a shield
for me;
my glory, and the lifter up
of my head.
4 📚✭I cried to the LORD
with my voice,
and he heard me from
his holy hill. Selah
5 📚✭I lay down and slept;
I awoke, for the LORD
sustained me.
6 📚I will not be afraid of ten thousands
of people who have set themselves
against me all around.
7 📚Arise, O LORD! Save me,
O my God!
For you have struck all my
enemies on the cheek bone;
you have broken the teeth
of the ungodly.
8 📚Salvation✭ belongs
to the LORD.
Your blessing✭ is on
your people. Selah
