Deliver Me, O LORD!
1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom.
O LORD, how my foes have increased!
How many rise up against me!
2 Many say of me,
"God will not deliver him."
Selah3:2 Selah or Interlude is probably a musical or literary term; here and throughout the Psalms.
3 But You, O LORD, are a shield around me,
my glory, and the One who lifts my head.
4 To the LORD I cry aloud,
and He answers me from His holy mountain.
Selah
5 I lie down and sleep;
I wake again, for the LORD sustains me.
6 I will not fear the myriads
set against me on every side.
