Psalmorum 3
1 Psalmus David, Cum fugeret a facie Absalom filii sui. Domine quid multiplicati sunt qui tribulant me? multi insurgunt adversum me.
A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. LORD, how many are mine adversaries become! Many are they that rise up against me.
2 Multi dicunt animae meae: Non est salus ipsi in Deo eius.
Many there are that say of my soul: 'There is no salvation for him in God.' (Selah)
3 Tu autem Domine susceptor meus es, gloria mea, et exaltans caput meum.
But thou, O LORD, art a shield about me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
4 Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi: et exaudivit me de monte sancto suo.
With my voice I call unto the LORD, and He answereth me out of His holy mountain. (Selah)
5 Ego dormivi, et soporatus sum: et exurrexi, quia Dominus suscepit me.
I lay me down, and I sleep; I awake, for the LORD sustaineth me.
6 Non timebo millia populi circumdantis me: exurge Domine: salvum me fac Deus meus.
I am not afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.
7 Quoniam tu percussisti omnes adversantes mihi sine causa: dentes peccatorum contrivisti.
Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God; for Thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek, Thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked.
8 Domini est salus: et super populum tuum benedictio tua.
Salvation belongeth unto the LORD; Thy blessing be upon Thy people. (Selah)
