ISV(i)
1 A Davidic Psalm, when he fled from his son Absalom.
God Delivers His Servants LORD, I have so many persecutors! Many are rising up against me!
2 Many are saying about me, “God will never deliver him!” Interlude
3 But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 I cry aloud to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain. Interlude
5 I lie down and sleep, I wake up, because the LORD sustains me.
6 I will not fear multitudes of people, who set themselves against me on every side.
7 Arise, LORD! Deliver me, my God! For you strike the jaw of all my enemies, and you break the teeth of the wicked.
8 Deliverance comes from the LORD! May your blessing be on your people. Interlude
