Psalms 3

The security of God's protection.

 3:1 ¶ [[A Melody of David, when he fled from before Absolom his son.]] Yahweh! how have mine adversaries multiplied, Multitudes, are rising against me;

 3:2 Multitudes, are saying of my soul,—No salvation for him in God. [Selah.]

 3:3 But, thou, Yahweh, art a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter up of my head.

 3:4 ¶ With my voice—unto Yahweh, do I cry, and he hath answered me out of his holy mountain. [Selah.]

 3:5 I, laid me down and slept,—I awoke, Surely, Yahweh, sustaineth me!

 3:6 I will not be afraid of myriads of people, who, round about, have set themselves against me.

 3:7 Rise! Yahweh, Save me, my God. Surely thou hast smitten all my foes on the cheekbone, The teeth of the lawless, hast thou broken.

 3:8 To Yahweh, belongeth Salvation! Upon thy people, be thy blessing. [Selah.]
