LORD, how my enemies have increased!

Many are rising up against me.

“There is no salvation for him in God.” Selah

But You, LORD, are a shield around me,

My glory, and the One who lifts my head.

Psa 3:4

I was crying out to the LORD with my voice,

And He answered me from His holy [fn]mountain. Selah

I awoke, for the LORD sustains me.

Psa 3:6

I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people

Who have set themselves against me all around.

Psa 3:7

Arise, LORD; save me, my God!

For You [fn]have struck all my enemies on the [fn]cheek;

You [fn]have shattered the teeth of the wicked.

Psa 3:8

[fn]Salvation belongs to the LORD;

May Your blessing [fn]be upon Your people! Selah
