1The psalm of David when he fled from the face of his son Absalom.
1 Lord, how greatly are they increased who make attacks on me! in great numbers they come against me.
1 Jehovah, how many are they that trouble me, many they that rise up against me!
2Why, O Lord, are they multiplied that afflict me? many are they who rise up against me.
2Unnumbered are those who say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. (Selah.)
2 Many say of my soul, There is no salvation for him inGod. Selah.
3Many say to my soul: There is no salvation for him in his God.
3But your strength, O Lord, is round me, you are my glory and the lifter up of my head.
3 But thou, Jehovah, art a shield about me; my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
4But thou, O Lord, art my protector, my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
4I send up a cry to the Lord with my voice, and he gives me an answer from his holy hill. (Selah.)
4 With my voice will I call to Jehovah, and he will answer me from the hill of his holiness. Selah.
5I have cried to the Lord with my voice: and he hath heard me from his holy hill.
5I took my rest in sleep, and then again I was awake; for the Lord was my support.
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked, for Jehovah sustaineth me.
6I have slept and have taken my rest: and I have risen up, because the Lord hath protected me.
6I will have no fear, though ten thousand have come round me, putting themselves against me.
6 I will not fear for myriads of the people that have set themselves against me round about.
7I will not fear thousands of the people surrounding me: arise, O Lord; save me, O my God.
7Come to me, Lord; keep me safe, O my God; for you have given all my haters blows on their face-bones; the teeth of the evil-doers have been broken by you.
7 Arise, Jehovah; save me, myGod! For thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheekbone, thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked.
