1 A psalm of David when fled he from before - Absalom son his. O Yahweh how! they are many opponents my many [people] [are] rising up on me.
Jehovah, how my adversaries are increased! Many are those who rise up against me.
2 Many [people] [are] saying of self my there not [is] deliverance for him in God (Selah)
Many there are who say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. (Selah)
3 And you O Yahweh [are] a shield behind me honor my and [the one who] lifts up head my.
But thou, O Jehovah, are a shield about me, my glory and he who lifts up of my head.
4 Voice my to Yahweh I called out and he answered me from [the] mountain of holiness his (Selah)
I cry to Jehovah with my voice, and he answers me out of his holy hill. (Selah)
5 I I lay down and I slept! I awoke for Yahweh he sustains me.
I laid down and slept. I awoke, for Jehovah sustains me.
6 Not I will be afraid from ten thousands of people who all around they have taken a stand on me.
I will not be afraid of ten thousands of the people who have set themselves against me round about.
7 Arise! O Yahweh - save me O God my for you have struck all enemies my jaw [the] teeth of wicked [people] you have broken.
Arise, O Jehovah. Save me, O my God. For thou have smitten all my enemies upon the cheek bone. Thou have broken the teeth of the wicked.
8 [belongs] to Yahweh deliverance [is] towards people your blessing your (Selah)
Salvation belongs to Jehovah. Thy blessing be upon thy people. (Selah)
