Psalms 3

1Jehovah, how are mine adversaries increased! Many are they that rise up against me.

1Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.

1A Psalm of David, in his fleeing from the face of Absalom his son. Jehovah, how have my distresses multiplied! Many are rising up against me.

1 Lord, how greatly are they increased who make attacks on me! in great numbers they come against me.

2Many there are that say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. [Selah

2Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.

2Many are saying of my soul, `There is no salvation for him in God.' Selah.

2Unnumbered are those who say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. (Selah.)

3But thou, O Jehovah, art a shield about me; My glory, and the lifter up of my head.

3But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

3And Thou, O Jehovah, <FI>art<Fi> a shield for me, My honour, and lifter up of my head.

3But your strength, O Lord, is round me, you are my glory and the lifter up of my head.

4I cry unto Jehovah with my voice, And he answereth me out of his holy hill. [Selah

4I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.

4My voice <FI>is<Fi> unto Jehovah: I call: And He answereth me from his holy hill, Selah.

4I send up a cry to the Lord with my voice, and he gives me an answer from his holy hill. (Selah.)

5I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for Jehovah sustaineth me.

5I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me.

5I--I have lain down, and I sleep, I have waked, for Jehovah sustaineth me.

5I took my rest in sleep, and then again I was awake; for the Lord was my support.

6I will not be afraid of ten thousands of the people That have set themselves against me round about.

6I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.

6I am not afraid of myriads of people, That round about they have set against me.

6I will have no fear, though ten thousand have come round me, putting themselves against me.

7Arise, O Jehovah; save me, O my God: For thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; Thou hast broken the teeth of the wicked.

7Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.

7Rise, O Jehovah! save me, my God. Because Thou hast smitten All mine enemies <FI>on<Fi> the cheek. The teeth of the wicked Thou hast broken.

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.

8Salvation belongeth unto Jehovah: Thy blessing be upon thy people. [Selah

8Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.

8Of Jehovah <FI>is<Fi> this salvation; On Thy people <FI>is<Fi> Thy blessing! Selah.

8Salvation comes from the Lord; your blessing is on your people. (Selah.)
