Psalms 3
Morning Prayer of Trust in God.
1O Lord, how my enemies have increased!
Many are rising up against me.
2Many are saying of me,
“There is no help [no salvation] for him in God.” Selah.
3But You, O Lord, are a shield for me,
My glory [and my honor], and the One who lifts my head.
4With my voice I was crying to the Lord,
And He answered me from His holy mountain. Selah.
5I lay down and slept [safely];
I awakened, for the Lord sustains me.
6I will not be intimidated or afraid of the ten thousands
Who have set themselves against me all around.
7Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God!
For You have struck all my enemies on the cheek;
You have shattered the teeth of the wicked.
8Salvation belongs to the Lord;
May Your blessing be upon Your people. Selah.
