³ But you, O Lord, are ^(A)a shield ^(B)about me,
    my glory, and ^(C)the lifter of my head.
⁴ I ^(D)cried aloud to the Lord,
    and he ^(E)answered me from his ^(F)holy hill. Selah

⁵ I ^(G)lay down and slept;
    I woke again, for the Lord sustained me.
⁶ I ^(H)will not be afraid of many thousands of people
    who have ^(I)set themselves against me all around.

^7 (J)Arise, O Lord!
    Save me, O my God!
For you ^(K)strike all my enemies on the cheek;
    you ^(L)break the teeth of the wicked.

¹¹ But let all who ^(A)take refuge in you ^(B)rejoice;
    let them ever sing for joy,
and spread your protection over them,
    that those who love your name may ^(C)exult in you.
¹² For you ^(D)bless the righteous, O Lord;
    you ^(E)cover him with favor as with ^(F)a shield.

⁴ Even though I ^(A)walk through the valley of ^(B)the shadow of death,^[a]
    I will ^(C)fear no evil,
for ^(D)you are with me;
    your ^(E)rod and your staff,
    they comfort me.

⁵ You ^(F)prepare a table before me
    in ^(G)the presence of my enemies;
you ^(H)anoint my head with oil;
    my ^(I)cup overflows.
⁶ Surely^[b] goodness and mercy^[c] shall follow me
    all the days of my life,
and I shall ^(J)dwell^[d] in the house of the Lord
    ^(K)forever.^[e]
