Morning Prayer of Trust in God.
|
|
A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. |
|
|
|
1 Jehovah, how are mine adversaries increased!
|
|
Many are they that rise up against me.
|
|
2 Many there are that say of my soul,
|
|
There is no help for him in God. {Selah
|
|
3 But thou, O Jehovah, art a shield about me;
|
|
My glory, and the lifter up of my head.
|
|
4 I cry unto Jehovah with my voice,
|
|
And he answereth me out of his holy hill. {Selah
|
|
5 I laid me down and slept;
|
|
I awaked; for Jehovah sustaineth me.
|
|
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of the people
|
|
That have set themselves against me round about.
|
|
7 Arise, O Jehovah; save me, O my God:
|
|
For thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone;
|
|
Thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked.
|
|
8 Salvation belongeth unto Jehovah:
|
|
Thy blessing be upon thy people. {Selah |
