1
LORD, how they have increased who trouble me!
Many are they who rise up against me.
2
Many are they who say of me,
"There is no help for him in God." Selah
3
But You, O LORD, are a a shield 1 for me,
My glory and b the One who lifts up my head.
4
I cried to the LORD with my voice,
And c He heard me from His d holy hill. Selah
5
e I lay down and slept;
I awoke, for the LORD sustained me.
6
f I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people
Who have set themselves against me all around.
7
Arise, O LORD;
Save me, O my God!
g For You have struck all my enemies on the cheekbone;
You have broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8
h Salvation belongs to the LORD.
Your blessing is upon Your people. Selah
