\s5 \c 3 \m \d A psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. \q \v 1 Yahweh, how many are my enemies! \q Many have risen against me. \q \v 2 Many say about me, \q "There is no help for him from God." \qs Selah\qs* \s5 \q \v 3 But you, Yahweh, are a shield around me, \q my glory, and the one who lifts up my head. \q \v 4 I lift up my voice to Yahweh, \q and he answers me from his holy hill. \qs Selah\qs* \s5 \q \v 5 I lay down and slept; \q I awoke, for Yahweh protected me. \q \v 6 I will not be afraid of the multitudes of people \q who have set themselves against me on every side. \s5 \q \v 7 Rise up, Yahweh! Save me, my God! \q For you will hit all my enemies on the jaw; \q you will break the teeth of the wicked. \q \v 8 Salvation comes from Yahweh. \q May your blessings be on your people. \qs Selah\qs*
