3:1  O LORD, how my adversaries have increased! Many rise up against me.

3:2  Many say of my soul, "God will deliver him." Selah.

3:3  But I regard You, O LORD, as a shield about me, My glory, and the One who lifts my head.

3:4  I cried to the LORD with my voice, and He answered me from His holy mountain. Selah.

3:5  I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the LORD sustains me.

3:6  I will not have fear of ten thousands of people Who have set themselves against me round about.

3:7   Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God! For You have smitten all my enemies on the cheek; You have shattered the teeth of the wicked.

3:8  Salvation belongs to the LORD; You bless Your people! Selah.
