Tehillim 3
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

Psalms 3
3
A song of David written during the time he was running from his son Absalom.
1Lord, I have so many enemies.
So many people have turned against me.
2They say to themselves, “God will not rescue him!” Selah
3But you, Lord, protect me.
You bring me honor;
you give me hope.
4I will pray to the Lord,
and he will answer me from his holy mountain. Selah
5I can lie down to rest and know that I will wake up,
because the Lord covers and protects me.
6So I will not be afraid of my enemies,
even if thousands of them surround me.
7Lord, get up!#3:7 Lord, get up The people said this when they lifted the Box of the Agreement and took it into battle, showing that God was with them. See Num. 10:35-36.
My God, come rescue me!
If you hit my enemies on the cheek,
you will break all their teeth.
8Lord, the victory#3:8 victory Or “salvation.” is yours!
You are so good to your people. Selah
