A psalm of David concerning the time he had to flee from his son Absalom. Lord, my enemies have become so many; so many are rebelling against me.

So many are telling me, “God can't save you!” (Selah)

Stand up for me, Lord! Save me, my God! Hit all my enemies on the cheek; break the teeth of the wicked!
