1 Lord, how my enemies have increased!

Many are rising up against me.

2 Many are saying of my soul,

"There is no salvation for him in God." Selah

3 But You, Lord, are a shield around me,

My glory, and the One who lifts my head.

4 I was crying out to the Lord with my voice,

And He answered me from His holy *mountain. Selah

5 *I lay down and slept;

I awoke, for the Lord sustains me.

6 I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people

Who have set themselves against me all around.

7 Arise, Lord; save me, my God!

For You *have struck all my enemies on the *cheek;

You *have shattered the teeth of the wicked.

8 *Salvation belongs to the Lord;

May Your blessing *be upon Your people! Selah
