03:001

A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son

03:002

HaShem, how many are mine adversaries become! Many are they that rise up against me

03:003

Many there are that say of my soul: 'There is no salvation for him in G-d.' Sela

03:004

But thou, O HaShem, art a shield about me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head

03:005

With my voice I call unto HaShem, and He answereth me out of His holy mountain. Sela

03:006

I lay me down, and I sleep; I awake, for HaShem sustaineth me

03:007

I am not afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about

03:008

Arise, O HaShem; save me, O my G-d; for Thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek, Thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked

03:009

Salvation belongeth unto HaShem; Thy blessing be upon Thy people. Sela
