Psalms 3
< PreviousNext >Psalm 3A Psalm by David, when he fled from Absalom his son.
1 Yehowah, how my adversaries have increased!
Many are those who rise up against me.
2 Many there are who say of my soul,
�There is no help for him in Elohim.�*The Hebrew word rendered �Elohim� is �?????????� (Elohim).
Selah.
3 But you, Yehowah, are a shield around me,
my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 I cry to Yehowah with my voice,
and he answers me out of his holy hill.
Selah.
5 I laid myself down and slept.
I awakened; for Yehowah sustains me.
6 I will not be afraid of tens of thousands of people
who have set themselves against me on every side.
7 Arise, Yehowah!
Save me, my Elohim!
For you have struck all of my enemies on the cheek bone.
You have broken the teeth of the wicked.
8 Salvation belongs to Yehowah.
Your blessing be on your people.
Selah.
*3:2: The Hebrew word rendered �Elohim� is �?????????� (Elohim).
