Threatened but Trusting
1A psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom.*a
I
2How many are my foes, Lord!
How many rise against me!
3*How many say of me,
“There is no salvation for him in God.”b
Selah
4But you, Lord, are a shield around me;
my glory, you keep my head high.c
II
5With my own voice I will call out to the Lord,
and he will answer me from his holy mountain.

6I lie down and I fall asleep,
[and] I will wake up, for the Lord sustains me.d
7I do not fear, then, thousands of people
arrayed against me on every side.
