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 are they increased that trouble me! many [are] they that rise up against me.
2 Multi dicunt animae meae: Non est salus ipsi in Deo eius.
Many [there be] which say of my soul, [There is] no help 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 for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
4 Voce mea ad Dominum clamavi: et exaudivit me de monte sancto suo.
I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. (Selah)
5 Ego dormivi, et soporatus sum: et exurrexi, quia Dominus suscepit me.
I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.
6 Non timebo millia populi circumdantis me: exurge Domine: salvum me fac Deus meus.
I will not be 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 bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8 Domini est salus: et super populum tuum benedictio tua.
Salvation [belongeth] unto the LORD: thy blessing [is] upon thy people. (Selah)
