Verse BSB Berean Standard Bible KJV King James Version

A Psalms of David, when he fled from his son Absalom. O LORD, how my foes have increased! How many rise up against me !

Lord, how are they increased that trouble me ! many are they that rise up against me .

Many say of me , “God will not deliver him. ” Selah

Many there be which say of my soul , There is no help for him in God . Selah .

But You , O LORD, are a shield around me , my glory, and the One who lifts my head.

But thou , O LORD, art a shield for me ; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

To the LORD I cry aloud , and He answers me from His holy mountain . Selah

I cried unto the LORD with my voice , and he heard me out of his holy hill . Selah .

I lie down and sleep ; I wake again, for the LORD sustains me.

I laid me down and slept ; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.

I will not fear the myriads set against me on every side .

I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about .

Arise, O LORD ! Save me, O my God ! Strike all my enemies on the jaw ; break the teeth of the wicked .

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 .

Salvation belongs to the LORD ; may Your blessing be on Your people. Selah

Salvation belongeth unto the LORD : thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah .
