1 [[A Melody of David, when he fled from before Absolom his son.]] Yahweh! how have mine adversaries multiplied, Multitudes, are rising against me; |
|
2 Multitudes, are saying of my soul,–No salvation for him in God. [Selah.] |
|
3 But, thou, Yahweh, art a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter up of my head. |
|
|
|
4 With my voice–unto Yahweh, do I cry, and he hath answered me out of his holy mountain. [Selah.] |
|
5 I, laid me down and slept,–I awoke, Surely, Yahweh, sustaineth me! |
|
6 I will not be afraid of myriads of people, who, round about, have set themselves against me. |
|
7 Rise! Yahweh, Save me, my God. Surely thou hast smitten all my foes on the cheekbone, The teeth of the lawless, hast thou broken. |
|
8 To Yahweh, belongeth Salvation! Upon thy people, be thy blessing. [Selah.] |
