< Psalms 3 >

1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. LORD, how are they multiplied that trouble me? many [are] they that rise up against me.
מִזְמֹ֥ור לְדָוִ֑ד בְּ֝בָרְחֹ֗ו מִפְּנֵ֤י ׀ אַבְשָׁלֹ֬ום בְּנֹֽו׃ יְ֭הוָה מָֽה־רַבּ֣וּ צָרָ֑י רַ֝בִּ֗ים קָמִ֥ים עָלָֽי׃
2 Many [there are] who say of my soul, [There is] no help for him in God. (Selah)
רַבִּים֮ אֹמְרִ֪ים לְנַ֫פְשִׁ֥י אֵ֤ין יְֽשׁוּעָ֓תָה לֹּ֬ו בֵֽאלֹהִ֬ים סֶֽלָה׃
3 But thou, O LORD, [art] a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
וְאַתָּ֣ה יְ֭הוָה מָגֵ֣ן בַּעֲדִ֑י כְּ֝בֹודִ֗י וּמֵרִ֥ים רֹאשִֽׁי׃
4 I cried to the LORD with my voice, and he heard me from his holy hill. (Selah)
קֹ֭ולִי אֶל־יְהוָ֣ה אֶקְרָ֑א וַיַּֽעֲנֵ֨נִי מֵהַ֖ר קָדְשֹׁ֣ו סֶֽלָה׃
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
אֲנִ֥י שָׁכַ֗בְתִּי וָֽאִ֫ישָׁ֥נָה הֱקִיצֹ֑ותִי כִּ֖י יְהוָ֣ה יִסְמְכֵֽנִי׃
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set [themselves] against me on all sides.
לֹֽא־אִ֭ירָא מֵרִבְבֹ֥ות עָ֑ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר סָ֝בִ֗יב שָׁ֣תוּ עָלָֽי׃
7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all my enemies [upon] the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
ק֘וּמָ֤ה יְהוָ֨ה ׀ הֹושִׁ֘יעֵ֤נִי אֱלֹהַ֗י כִּֽי־הִכִּ֣יתָ אֶת־כָּל־אֹיְבַ֣י לֶ֑חִי שִׁנֵּ֖י רְשָׁעִ֣ים שִׁבַּֽרְתָּ׃
8 Salvation [belongeth] to the LORD: thy blessing [is] upon thy people. (Selah)
לַיהוָ֥ה הַיְשׁוּעָ֑ה עַֽל־עַמְּךָ֖ בִרְכָתֶ֣ךָ סֶּֽלָה׃
