3:1  A psalm of David. When he was fleeing from his son Absalom.
3:2  O Lord, how great is the number of my enemies, how many are those who rise up against me.
3:3  How numerous are the ones who say of me, “He will not receive salvation from God.” Selah
3:4  But you, O Lord, are a shield to protect me; you are my glory and the one who raises my head high.
3:5  Whenever I cry aloud to the Lord, he answers me from his holy mountain. Selah
3:6  I lie down and sleep; I awaken again, for the Lord sustains me.
3:7  Thus, I will not fear the multitudes who have surrounded me on every side.
3:8  Rise up, O Lord! Rescue me, O my God! You will strike all my enemies across the face and break the teeth of the wicked.
3:9  Salvation comes from the Lord. May your blessing be upon your people. Selah
