Psalm 3 :: Amplified Bible (AMP)

Many are saying of me,

“There is no help [no salvation] for him in God.” [fn]Selah.

But You, O LORD, are a shield for me,

My glory [and my honor], and the One who lifts my head.

With my voice I was crying to the LORD,

And He answered me from His holy mountain. Selah.

I lay down and slept [safely];

I awakened, for the LORD sustains me.

I will not be intimidated or afraid of the ten thousands

Who have set themselves against me all around.

Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God!

For You have struck all my enemies on the cheek;

You have shattered the teeth of the wicked.

Salvation belongs to the LORD;

May Your blessing be upon Your people. Selah.
