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 of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. Yahweh, how many are my enemies! Many have risen against me.
2 multi dicunt animae meae non est salus ipsi in Deo eius diapsalma
Many say about me, “There is no help for him from God.” (Selah)
3 tu autem Domine susceptor meus es gloria mea et exaltans caput meum
But you, Yahweh, 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 lift up my voice to Yahweh, and he answers me from his holy hill. (Selah)
5 ego dormivi et soporatus sum exsurrexi quia Dominus suscipiet me
I lay down and slept; I awoke, for Yahweh protected me.
6 non timebo milia populi circumdantis me exsurge Domine salvum me fac Deus meus
I will not be afraid of the multitudes of people who have set themselves against me on every side.
7 quoniam tu percussisti omnes adversantes mihi sine causa dentes peccatorum contrivisti
Rise up, Yahweh! Save me, my God! For you will hit all my enemies on the jaw; you will break the teeth of the wicked.
8 Domini est salus et super populum tuum benedictio tua
Salvation comes from Yahweh. May your blessings be on your people. (Selah)
