Psalms Chapter Psalms 3

1

Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.

2

Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.

3

But you, O LORD, are a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head.

4

I cried to the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.

5

I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.

6

I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.

7

Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for you have smitten all my enemies on the cheek bone; you have broken the teeth of the ungodly.

8

Salvation belongs to the LORD: your blessing is on your people. Selah.
