Psalms 3

   |   

Save Me, O My God

A Psalm of David, (a)when he fled from Absalom his son.

1 O Lord, (b)how many are my foes!
    Many are (c)rising against me;
2 many are saying of my soul,
    (d)"There is no salvation for him in God." Selah[a]

3 But you, O Lord, are (e)a shield (f)about me,
    my glory, and (g)the lifter of my head.
4 I (h)cried aloud to the Lord,
    and he (i)answered me from his (j)holy hill. Selah

5 I (k)lay down and slept;
    I woke again, for the Lord sustained me.
6 I (l)will not be afraid of many thousands of people
    who have (m)set themselves against me all around.

7 (n)Arise, O Lord!
    Save me, O my God!
For you (o)strike all my enemies on the cheek;
    you (p)break the teeth of the wicked.

8 (q)Salvation belongs to the Lord;
    your blessing be on your people! Selah
