Save Me, O My God

Psalm 3

A psalm of David. When he fled from his son Absalom.

1
Lord, how many are my foes!
How many rise up against me!
2 Many are saying of me,
"God will not deliver him." 1

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.
