Psalm 3
King James Version
3 Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.
2 Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.
3 But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
4 I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.
5 I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me.
6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.
7 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.
8 Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.

Salmo de David, cuando huía de delante de Absalón su hijo.
1 ¡Oh SEÑOR, cuánto se han multiplicado mis enemigos! Muchos se levantan contra mí.
2 Muchos dicen de mi alma: No hay para él salud en Dios. (Selah.)
3 Mas tú, el SEÑOR, eres escudo por mí; mi gloria, y el que ensalza mi cabeza.
4 ¶ Con mi voz clamé al SEÑOR, y él me respondió desde el monte de su santidad. (Selah.)
5 Yo me acosté, y dormí, y desperté; porque el SEÑOR me sustentaba.
6 No temeré de diez millares de gente, que pusieren cerco contra mí.
7 Levántate, SEÑOR; sálvame, Dios mío; porque tú heriste a todos mis enemigos en la quijada; los dientes de los malos quebraste.
8 Del SEÑOR es la salud: Sobre tu pueblo será tu bendición. (Selah.)
