King James Version
Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.
I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me.
I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.
Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.
Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.
— Psalms 3:1-1953, King James Version

[Selah But thou, O Jehovah, art a shield about me; My glory, and the lifter up of my head. I cry unto Jehovah with my voice, And he answereth me out of his holy hill. [Selah I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for Jehovah sustaineth me. I will not be afraid of ten thousands of the people That have set themselves against me round about.

“A psalm of David, written when he fled from his son Absalom. LORD, how numerous are my enemies! Many attack me. Many say about me,“God will not deliver him.”(Selah) But you, LORD, are a shield that protects me; you are my glory and the one who restores me. To the LORD I cried out, and he answered me from his holy hill.(Selah) I rested and slept; I awoke, for the LORD protects me. I am not afraid of the multitude of people who attack me from all directions. Rise up, LORD! Deliver me, my God! Yes, you will strike all my enemies on the jaw; you will break the teeth of the wicked. The LORD delivers; you show favor to your people.(Selah)”
“ Lord, how greatly are they increased who make attacks on me! in great numbers they come against me. Unnumbered are those who say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. (Selah.) But your strength, O Lord, is round me, you are my glory and the lifter up of my head. I send up a cry to the Lord with my voice, and he gives me an answer from his holy hill. (Selah.) I took my rest in sleep, and then again I was awake; for the Lord was my support. I will have no fear, though ten thousand have come round me, putting themselves against me. Come to me, Lord; keep me safe, O my God; for you have given all my haters blows on their face-bones; the teeth of the evil-doers have been broken by you. Salvation comes from the Lord; your blessing is on your people. (Selah.)”
