< Psalms 3 >

1 A Psalm of David. When he fled from the face of his son, Absalom. Lord, why have those who trouble me been multiplied? Many rise up against me.
Mazmur Daud, ketika ia lari dari Absalom, anaknya. Ya TUHAN, alangkah banyaknya musuhku, sangat banyak yang menyerang aku!
2 Many say to my soul, “There is no salvation for him in his God.” (Pause)
Ada banyak yang berkata bahwa Allah tak mau menolong aku.
3 But you, Lord, are my supporter, my glory, and the one who raises up my head.
Tetapi Engkau, ya TUHAN, adalah perisai yang melindungi aku. Kauberi aku kemenangan, dan Kaubesarkan hatiku.
4 I have cried out to the Lord with my voice, and he has heard me from his holy mountain. (Pause)
Aku berseru kepada TUHAN; dari bukit-Nya yang suci Ia menjawab aku.
5 I have slept, and I have been stupefied. But I awakened because the Lord has taken me up.
Aku berbaring dan tidur dengan tentram, dan bangun lagi, sebab TUHAN menopang aku.
6 I will not fear the thousands of people surrounding me. Rise up, Lord. Save me, my God.
Aku tidak takut kepada ribuan lawan yang mengepung aku dari segala jurusan.
7 For you have struck all those who oppose me without cause. You have broken the teeth of sinners.
Selamatkanlah aku, ya TUHAN Allahku, hukumlah dan lumpuhkanlah semua lawanku.
8 Salvation is of the Lord, and your blessing is upon your people. (Pause)
Dari Engkaulah datang pertolongan, ya TUHAN, sudilah memberkati umat-Mu.
