Psalms 3

   |   

Yahweh, Save Me

A Psalm of David. When (FA)he fled from Absalom his son.

1 O Yahweh, how (C1)my adversaries have become many!
Many are rising up against me.

2 Many are saying (F1)of my soul,
"There is no (C1)salvation for him in God." Selah
may mean Pause, Crescendo, Musical Interlude">(F2)Selah.

3 But You, O Yahweh, are (C1)a shield about me,
My (C2)glory, and the One who (C3)lifts my head.

4 I was calling to Yahweh with my voice,
And He (C1)answered me from (C2)His holy (F1)mountain. Selah.

5 (F1)I (C1)lay down and slept;
I awoke, for Yahweh sustains me.

6 I will (C1)not be afraid of ten thousands of people
Who all around (C2)have set themselves against me.

7 (C1)Arise, O Yahweh; (C2)save me, O my God!
For You have (C3)struck all my enemies on the (F1)cheek;
You (F2)have (C4)shattered the teeth of the wicked.

8 (F1)(C1)Salvation belongs to Yahweh;
Your (C2)blessing (F2)be upon Your people! Selah.
