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

Oración matutina de confianza en Dios
Salmo de David, cuando huía de su hijo Absalón.(A)
3 Señor, ¡cómo han aumentado mis enemigos!
Son muchos los que me atacan,
2 son muchos los que me dicen
que tú no vendrás en mi ayuda.
3 Pero tú, Señor, me rodeas como un escudo;
eres mi orgullo, el que sostiene mi vida.
4 Con mi voz clamaré a ti, Señor,
y tú me responderás desde tu lugar santo.
5 Yo me acuesto, y duermo y despierto,
porque tú, Señor, me sostienes.
6 Aun si me rodean legiones de soldados,
no tengo nada que temer.
7 Señor y Dios mío, ¡acude a rescatarme!
¡Hiere a todos mis enemigos en la mejilla!
¡Rómpeles los dientes a esos malvados!
8 A ti, Señor, te corresponde salvar;
¡derrama tus bendiciones sobre tu pueblo!
