| 1 | O LORD, how many are my foes! Many are rising against me; |
| 2 | many are saying of me, there is no help for him in God. [Selah] |
| 3 | But thou, O LORD, art a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head. |
| 4 | I cry aloud to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy hill. [Selah] |
| 5 | I lie down and sleep; I wake again, for the LORD sustains me. |
| 6 | I am not afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me round about. |
| 7 | Arise, O LORD! Deliver me, O my God! For thou dost smite all my enemies on the cheek, thou dost break the teeth of the wicked. |
| 8 | Deliverance belongs to the LORD; thy blessing be upon thy people! [Selah] |
