¹ A Psalm. Of David. When he went in flight from Absalom his son. Lord, how greatly are they increased who make attacks on me! in great numbers they come against me. ² Unnumbered are those who say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. I Selah. ³ But your strength, O Lord, is round me, you are my glory and the lifter up of my head. ⁴ I send up a cry to the Lord with my voice, and he gives me an answer from his holy hill. I Selah. ⁵ I took my rest in sleep, and then again I was awake; for the Lord was my support. ⁶ I will have no fear, though ten thousand have come round me, putting themselves against me. ⁷ Come 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. ⁸ Salvation comes from the Lord; your blessing is on your people. I Selah.
