Psalmorum 3
1 Psalmus David, cum fugeret a facie Absalom filii sui. Domine, quid multiplicati sunt qui tribulant me? Multi insurgunt adversum me;
Adonai, how my adversaries have increased! Many are those who rise up against me.
2 multi dicunt animæ meæ: Non est salus ipsi in Deo ejus.
Many there are who say of my soul, “There is no yishu'ah ·salvation· for him in God.” (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·
3 Tu autem Domine, susceptor meus es, gloria mea, et exaltans caput meum.
But you, Adonai, are a shield around me, my kavod ·weighty glory·, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi; et exaudivit me de monte sancto suo.
I cry to Adonai with my voice, and he answers me out of his holy hill. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·
5 Ego dormivi, et soporatus sum; et exsurrexi, quia Dominus suscepit me.
I laid myself down and slept. I awakened; for Adonai sustains me.
6 Non timebo millia populi circumdantis me. Exsurge, Domine; salvum me fac, Deus meus.
I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people who have set themselves against me on every side.
7 Quoniam tu percussisti omnes adversantes mihi sine causa; dentes peccatorum contrivisti.
Arise, Adonai! Save me, my God! For you have struck all of my enemies on the cheek bone. You have broken the teeth of the wicked.
8 Domini est salus; et super populum tuum benedictio tua.
Yishu'ah ·Salvation· belongs to Adonai. Your blessing be on your people. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·
