< Psalms 3 >
1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. LORD, how are mine adversaries increased! many are they that rise up against me.
psalmus David cum fugeret a facie Abessalon filii sui Domine quid multiplicati sunt qui tribulant me multi insurgunt adversum me
2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. (Selah)
multi dicunt animae meae non est salus ipsi in Deo eius diapsalma
3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield about me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
tu autem Domine susceptor meus es gloria mea et exaltans caput meum
4 I cry unto the LORD with my voice, and he answereth me out of his holy hill. (Selah)
voce mea ad Dominum clamavi et exaudivit me de monte sancto suo diapsalma
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustaineth me.
ego dormivi et soporatus sum exsurrexi quia Dominus suscipiet me
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of the people, that have set themselves against me round about.
non timebo milia populi circumdantis me exsurge Domine salvum me fac Deus meus
7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked.
quoniam tu percussisti omnes adversantes mihi sine causa dentes peccatorum contrivisti
8 Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing be upon thy people. (Selah)
Domini est salus et super populum tuum benedictio tua
