Psalms 3


font
KING JAMES BIBLEDOUAI-RHEIMS
1 LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.1 The psalm of David when he fled from the face of his son Absalom.
2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.2 Why, O Lord, are they multiplied that afflict me? many are they who rise up against me.
3 But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.3 Many say to my soul: There is no salvation for him in his God.
4 I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.4 But thou, O Lord art my protector, my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.5 I have cried to the Lord with my voice: and he hath heard me from his holy hill.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.6 I have slept and taken my rest: and I have risen up, because the Lord hath protected me.
7 Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.7 I will not fear thousands of the people, surrounding me: arise, O Lord; save me, O my God.
8 Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.8 For thou hast struck all them who are my adversaries without cause: thou hast broken the teeth of sinners.
9 Salvation is of the Lord: and thy blessing is upon thy people.
