Psalm 3

¹ Lord, how many are my foes! How many rise up against me!
² Many are saying of me, “God will not deliver him.”
³ But you, Lord, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high.
⁴ I call out to the Lord, and he answers me from his holy mountain.
⁵ I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the Lord sustains me.
⁶ I will not fear though tens of thousands assail me on every side.
⁷ Arise, Lord! Deliver me, my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked.
⁸ From the Lord comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people.
