< Psalms 3 >
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.
Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
2 Many [people] [are] saying of self my there not [is] deliverance for him in God (Selah)
Many there be which 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 you, O LORD, are a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
4 Voice my to Yahweh I called out and he answered me from [the] mountain of holiness his (Selah)
I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. (Selah)
5 I I lay down and I slept! I awoke for Yahweh he sustains me.
I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained 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 people, that 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 LORD; save me, O my God: for you have smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; you have broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8 [belongs] to Yahweh deliverance [is] towards people your blessing your (Selah)
Salvation belongs unto the LORD: your blessing is upon your people. (Selah)
