Psalms 3

Psalm 3

1O Lord , look how my enemies have increased!

Many are attacking me.

2Many are saying about me,

“Even with God ⌞on his side⌟ ,

he won’t be victorious.” Selah

3But you, O Lord , are a shield that surrounds me.

You are my glory.

You hold my head high.

4I call aloud to the Lord ,

and he answers me from his holy mountain. Selah

5I lie down and sleep.

I wake up again because the Lord continues to support me.

6I am not afraid of the tens of thousands

who have taken positions against me on all sides.

7Arise, O Lord !

Save me, O my God!

You have slapped all my enemies in the face.

You have smashed the teeth of wicked people.

8Victory belongs to the Lord !

May your blessing rest on your people. Selah
