Psalm 3
English Standard Version
Save Me, O My God
A Psalm of David, (A)when he fled from Absalom his son.
3 O Lord, (B)how many are my foes!
Many are (C)rising against me;
2 many are saying of my soul,
(D)“There is no salvation for him in God.” Selah[a]
3 But you, O Lord, are (E)a shield (F)about me,
my glory, and (G)the lifter of my head.
4 I (H)cried aloud to the Lord,
and he (I)answered me from his (J)holy hill. Selah
5 I (K)lay down and slept;
I woke again, for the Lord sustained me.
6 I (L)will not be afraid of many thousands of people
who have (M)set themselves against me all around.
7 (N)Arise, O Lord!
Save me, O my God!
For you (O)strike all my enemies on the cheek;
you (P)break the teeth of the wicked.
8 (Q)Salvation belongs to the Lord;
your blessing be on your people! Selah

詩篇 3
Japanese Living Bible
ダビデが王子アブシャロムに追われて逃げた時の賛歌。
3 ああ主よ。
どうして、こんなに多くの者が私に逆らうのでしょう。
どうして、こんなに多くの者から
いのちを狙われるのですか。
右も左も敵ばかりです。
2 神が私をお助けになるはずはないと、
だれもが口をそろえて言います。
3 しかし、主は私の盾、私の栄光、
ただ一つの望みです。
主だけが、恥辱にまみれてうなだれている私の頭を、
高く持ち上げてくださいます。
4 私が大声で叫ぶと、
主はエルサレムの神殿から答えてくださいました。
5 私は安心して横になり、ぐっすりと眠りました。
主が守ってくださったからです。
6 たとえ何万の敵に包囲されても、私は恐れません。
7 私は主を呼び求めます。
「主よ、立ち上がってください。
神よ、お救いください。」
すると、主は敵の顔を平手打ちして侮辱し、
彼らの歯を打ち砕きます。
8 救いは神から来ます。
神はご自分の民に、
なんと大きな喜びをお与えになることでしょう。
Psalm 3
New King James Version
The Lord Helps His Troubled People
A Psalm of David (A)when he fled from Absalom his son.
3 Lord, how they have increased who trouble me!
Many are they who rise up against me.
2 Many are they who say of me,
“There is no help for him in God.” Selah
3 But You, O Lord, are (B)a shield [a]for me,
My glory and (C)the One who lifts up my head.
4 I cried to the Lord with my voice,
And (D)He heard me from His (E)holy hill. Selah
5 (F)I lay down and slept;
I awoke, for the Lord sustained me.
6 (G)I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people
Who have set themselves against me all around.
7 Arise, O Lord;
Save me, O my God!
(H)For You have struck all my enemies on the cheekbone;
You have broken the teeth of the ungodly.
8 (I)Salvation belongs to the Lord.
Your blessing is upon Your people. Selah
