Psalm 3

Trust in God under Adversity

A Psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom.
O Lord, how many are my foes!
   Many are rising against me; 
many are saying to me,
   ‘There is no help for you in God.’
          Selah 

But you, O Lord, are a shield around me,
   my glory, and the one who lifts up my head. 
I cry aloud to the Lord,
   and he answers me from his holy hill.
          Selah 

I lie down and sleep;
   I wake again, for the Lord sustains me. 
I am not afraid of tens of thousands of people
   who have set themselves against me all around. 

Rise up, O Lord!
   Deliver me, O my God!
For you strike all my enemies on the cheek;
   you break the teeth of the wicked. 

Deliverance belongs to the Lord;
   may your blessing be on your people!
