PSALM 3
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son.
1O Lord, how are my foes increas'd?
against me many rise.
2Many say of my soul, For him
in God no succour lies.
3Yet thou my shield and glory art,
th' uplifter of mine head.
4I cry'd, and, from his holy hill,
the Lord me answer made.
5I laid me down and slept; I wak'd;
for God sustained me.
6I will not fear though thousands ten
set round against me be.
7Arise, O Lord; save me, my God;
for thou my foes hast stroke
All on the cheek-bone, and the teeth
of wicked men hast broke.
8Salvation doth appertain
unto the Lord alone:
Thy blessing, Lord, for evermore
thy people is upon.

3
(A psalm of Dovid, when he fled from Avshalom bno)
1 Hashem, how are they increased that are my foes! Many are they that rise up against me.
2 Many there be which say of my nefesh, There is no yeshu'ah for him in Elohim. Selah
3 But Thou, Hashem, art a mogen around me; my kavod, and the One who lifts up mine head.
4 I cried unto Hashem with my voice, and He heard me out of His Har Kodesh. Selah
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked, for Hashem sustains me.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of am (people), that have set themselves against me round about.
7 Arise, Hashem; hoshieini (save me), O Elohai; for Thou hast struck all mine enemies upon the cheekbone; Thou hast broken the teeth of the resha'im.
8 HaYeshuah (salvation) belongeth unto Hashem; the Birkhat (blessing) of Thee is upon Thy people. Selah
