Psalms 3
1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from the presence of his son Abessalom. O Lord, why are they that afflict me multiplied? many rise up against me.
| מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִד בְּבׇרְחוֹ מִפְּנֵי ׀ אַבְשָׁלוֹם בְּנֽוֹ׃ יְהֹוָה מָה־רַבּוּ צָרָי רַבִּים קָמִים עָלָֽי׃ |
2 Many say concerning my soul, There is no deliverance for him in his God. (Pause)
| רַבִּים אֹמְרִים לְנַפְשִׁי אֵין יְֽשׁוּעָתָה לּוֹ בֵאלֹהִים סֶֽלָה׃ |
3 But you, O Lord, are my helper: my glory, and the one that lifts up my head.
| וְאַתָּה יְהֹוָה מָגֵן בַּעֲדִי כְּבוֹדִי וּמֵרִים רֹאשִֽׁי׃ |
4 I cried to the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy mountain. (Pause)
| קוֹלִי אֶל־יְהֹוָה אֶקְרָא וַיַּעֲנֵנִי מֵהַר קׇדְשׁוֹ סֶֽלָה׃ |
5 I lay down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord will help me.
| אֲנִי שָׁכַבְתִּי וָאִישָׁנָה הֱקִיצוֹתִי כִּי יְהֹוָה יִסְמְכֵֽנִי׃ |
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, who beset me round about.
| לֹֽא־אִירָא מֵרִבְבוֹת עָם אֲשֶׁר סָבִיב שָׁתוּ עָלָֽי׃ |
7 Arise, Lord; deliver me, my God: for you have struck all who were without cause mine enemies; you have broken the teeth of sinners.
| קוּמָה יְהֹוָה ׀ הוֹשִׁיעֵנִי אֱלֹהַי כִּֽי־הִכִּיתָ אֶת־כׇּל־אֹיְבַי לֶחִי שִׁנֵּי רְשָׁעִים שִׁבַּֽרְתָּ׃ |
8 Deliverance is the Lord's, and your blessing is upon your people.
| לַֽיהֹוָה הַיְשׁוּעָה עַֽל־עַמְּךָ בִרְכָתֶךָ סֶּֽלָה׃ |
