Psalms 3

    A psalm of David, regarding the time David fled from his son Absalom.
  1. O Lord, I have so many enemies; so many are against me.
  2. So many are saying, "God will never rescue him!" Interlude[1]
  3. But you, O Lord, are a shield around me; you are my glory, the one who holds my head high.
  4. I cried out to the Lord, and he answered me from his holy mountain. Interlude
  5. I lay down and slept, yet I woke up in safety, for the Lord was watching over me.
  6. I am not afraid of ten thousand enemies who surround me on every side.
  7. Arise, O Lord! Rescue me, my God! Slap all my enemies in the face! Shatter the teeth of the wicked!
  8. Victory comes from you, O Lord. May you bless your people. Interlude
  1. Hebrew 'Selah.' The meaning of this word is uncertain, though it is probably a musical or literary term. It is rendered 'Interlude' throughout the Psalms.
