Psalms 3

A Call to Yahweh in Distress

1Yahweh, how many are my enemies;

many are rising against me.

2Many are saying about my soul,

“There is no deliverance for him from God. Selah

3But you, Yahweh, are a shield around me,[#Or “And”]

my glory and the one who lifts up my head.

4With my voice I call to Yahweh

and he answers me from his holy hill. Selah

5I lay down and slept;

I woke up because Yahweh sustains me.

6I am not afraid of the ten thousands of people

who all around have set themselves against me.

7Rise up, O Yahweh; deliver me, O my God;

for you strike all my enemies on the cheek.

The teeth of the wicked you break.

8To Yahweh belongs deliverance;

may your blessing be over your people. Selah
