Psalms 03 David Trusts in God in His Trouble

 Psalms 03

David Trusts in God in His Trouble

1 O Lord, how many are my adversaries! There are many who rise up against me!

2 Many say of my soul, “There is no salvation for him in God.”

3 But you, O Lord, are a shield for me, my glory, and the lifter of my head.

4 I cried out to the Lord with my voice; he heard me from his holy hill.

5 I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the Lord sustained me.

6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me all around.

7 Arise, O Lord; save me, my God! For you have struck all my enemies on the jaws; you have broken the teeth of the wicked.

8 Salvation belongs to the Lord; may your blessing be on your people.
