Davi confia em Deus na sua adversidade

Salmo de Davi, quando fugiu de diante da face de Absalão, seu filho

Senhor, como se têm multiplicado os meus adversários! São muitos os que se levantam contra mim. Muitos dizem da minha alma: Não salvação para ele em Deus. (Selá)

Mas tu, Senhor, és um escudo para mim, a minha glória e o que exalta a minha cabeça. Com a minha voz clamei ao Senhor; ele ouviu-me desde o seu santo monte. (Selá)

Eu me deitei e dormi; acordei, porque o Senhor me sustentou. Não terei medo de dez milhares de pessoas que se puseram contra mim ao meu redor.

Levanta-te, Senhor; salva-me, Deus meu, pois feriste a todos os meus inimigos nos queixos; quebraste os dentes aos ímpios.

A salvação vem do Senhor; sobre o teu povo seja a tua bênção. (Selá)

Psalm 3[a]

A psalm of David. When he fled from his son Absalom.(A)

Lord, how many are my foes!
    How many rise up against me!
Many are saying of me,
    “God will not deliver him.(B)[b]

But you, Lord, are a shield(C) around me,
    my glory, the One who lifts my head high.(D)
I call out to the Lord,(E)
    and he answers me from his holy mountain.(F)

I lie down and sleep;(G)
    I wake again,(H) because the Lord sustains me.
I will not fear(I) though tens of thousands
    assail me on every side.(J)

Arise,(K) Lord!
    Deliver me,(L) my God!
Strike(M) all my enemies on the jaw;
    break the teeth(N) of the wicked.

From the Lord comes deliverance.(O)
    May your blessing(P) be on your people.

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.

The Lord Helps His Troubled People

There is no help for him in God.” Selah

My glory and (C)the One who lifts up my head.

And (D)He heard me from His (E)holy hill. Selah
