1 1 1 A psalm of David when he ran away from his son Absalom.
1 Lord, I have so many enemies! 1 So many people are rising up against me!
2 Many are saying about me, 2 "God will not save him." Selah
3 Lord, you are like a shield that keeps me safe. 3 You honor me. You help me win the battle.
4 I call out to the Lord. 4 He answers me from his holy hill. Selah
5 I lie down and sleep. 5 I wake up again, because the Lord takes care of me.
6 I won't be afraid of the tens of thousands 6 who are lined up against me on every side.
7 Lord, rise up! 7 My God, save me! 7 Strike all my enemies in the face. 7 Break the teeth of sinful people.
8 Lord, you are the one who saves. 8 May your blessing be on your people. Selah
