Psalm 3

New International Version

³ But you, Lord, are a shield^(C) around me,
    my glory, the One who lifts my head high.^(D)
4 I call out to the Lord,^(E)
    and he answers me from his holy mountain.^(F)

⁵ I lie down and sleep;^(G)
    I wake again,^(H) because the Lord sustains me.
⁶ I will not fear^(I) though tens of thousands
    assail me on every side.^(J)

⁷ Arise,^(K) Lord!
    Deliver me,^(L) my God!
Strike^(M) all my enemies on the jaw;
    break the teeth^(N) of the wicked.

⁸ From the Lord comes deliverance.^(O)
    May your blessing^(P) be on your people.
