The One who lifts my head

Psalm 3

O Lord, how my adversaries have increased!


Many are rising up against me.

Many are saying of my soul,


“There is no deliverance for him in God.” 

But You, O Lord, are a shield about me,


My glory, and the One who lifts my head.

I was crying to the Lord with my voice,


And He answered me from His holy mountain. 

I lay down and slept;


I awoke, for the Lord sustains me.

I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people


Who have set themselves against me round about.

Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God!


For You have smitten all my enemies on the cheek;


You have shattered the teeth of the wicked.

Salvation belongs to the Lord;


Your blessing be upon Your people!
