1 A Psalm * h4210 of David * h1732, when he fled * h1272 h8800 from * h6440 Absalom * h53 his son * h1121. LORD * h3068, how are they increased * h7231 h8804 that trouble * h6862 me! many * h7227 are they that rise up * h6965 h8801 against me.
2 Many * h7227 there be which say * h559 h8802 of my soul * h5315, There is no help * h3444 for him in God * h430. Selah * h5542.
3 But thou, O LORD * h3068, art a shield * h4043 for me; my glory * h3519, and the lifter up * h7311 h8688 of mine head * h7218. for: or, about
4 I cried * h7121 h8799 unto the LORD * h3068 with my voice * h6963, and he heard * h6030 h8799 me out of his holy * h6944 hill * h2022. Selah * h5542.
5 I laid me down * h7901 h8804 and slept * h3462 h8799; I awaked * h6974 h8689; for the LORD * h3068 sustained * h5564 h8799 me.
6 I will not be afraid * h3372 h8799 of ten thousands * h7233 of people * h5971, that have set * h7896 h8804 themselves against me round about * h5439.
7 Arise * h6965 h8798, O LORD * h3068; save * h3467 h8685 me, O my God * h430: for thou hast smitten * h5221 h8689 all mine enemies * h341 h8802 upon the cheek bone * h3895; thou hast broken * h7665 h8765 the teeth * h8127 of the ungodly * h7563.
8 Salvation * h3444 belongeth unto the LORD * h3068: thy blessing * h1293 is upon thy people * h5971. Selah * h5542.
