Psalm 3, NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION
Prior Chapter   |   Next Chapter

1

O LORD, how many are my foes!
How many rise up against me!
 

2

Many are saying of me,
“God will not deliver him.”
Selah
 

3

But you are a shield around me, O LORD;
you bestow glory on me and lift up my head.
 

4

To the LORD I cry aloud,
and he answers me from his holy hill.
Selah
 

5

I lie down and sleep;
I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.
 

6

I will not fear the tens of thousands
drawn up against me on every side.
 

7

Arise, O LORD!
Deliver me, O my God!
Strike all my enemies on the jaw;
break the teeth of the wicked.
 

8

From the LORD comes deliverance.
May your blessing be on your people.
Selah
