PSALM 1903

Trust in God in Time of Danger

1 A psalm of David,
when he fled from his son Absalom.

2 How many are my foes, LORD!
How many rise against me!

3 How many say of me,
"God will not save that one." Selah

4 But you, LORD, are a shield around me;
my glory, you keep my head high.

5 Whenever I cried out to the LORD,
I was answered from the holy mountain. Selah

6 Whenever I lay down and slept,
the LORD preserved me to rise again.

7 I do not fear, then,
thousands of people arrayed against me on every side.

8 Arise, LORD! Save me, my God!
You will shatter the jaws of all my foes;
you will break the teeth of the wicked.

9 Safety comes from the LORD!
Your blessing for your people! Selah
