Psalms 3

^{Verse 1}O LORD, how my foes have increased! How many rise up against me! ^{Verse 2}Many say of me, “God will not deliver him.” Selah ^{Verse 3}But You, O LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the One who lifts my head. ^{Verse 4}To the LORD I cry aloud, and He answers me from His holy mountain. Selah ^{Verse 5}I lie down and sleep; I wake again, for the LORD sustains me. ^{Verse 6}I will not fear the myriads set against me on every side. ^{Verse 7}Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked. ^{Verse 8}Salvation belongs to the LORD; may Your blessing be on Your people. Selah
