< Psalmorum 3 >

1 psalmus David cum fugeret a facie Abessalon filii sui Domine quid multiplicati sunt qui tribulant me multi insurgunt adversum me
[A Psalm by David, when he fled from Absalom his son.] YHWH, how my adversaries have increased. Many rise up against me.
2 multi dicunt animae meae non est salus ipsi in Deo eius diapsalma
Many there are who 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 you, YHWH, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 voce mea ad Dominum clamavi et exaudivit me de monte sancto suo diapsalma
I cried out to YHWH with my voice, and he answered me from his holy mountain. (Selah)
5 ego dormivi et soporatus sum exsurrexi quia Dominus suscipiet me
I lay down and slept. I awoke, for YHWH sustains me.
6 non timebo milia populi circumdantis me exsurge Domine salvum me fac Deus meus
I am not afraid of ten 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, YHWH. Save me, my God. For you slap all my enemies in the face. You break the teeth of the wicked.
8 Domini est salus et super populum tuum benedictio tua
Salvation belongs to YHWH. Your blessing is upon your people. (Selah)
