1 Lord, I have so many enemies!
So many people are rising up against me!
2 Many are saying about me,
"God will not save him."
Selah
3 Lord, you are like a shield that keeps me safe.
You honor me. You help me win the battle.
4 I call out to the Lord.
He answers me from his holy hill.
Selah
5 I lie down and sleep.
I wake up again, because the Lord takes care of me.
6 I won't be afraid of the tens of thousands
who are lined up against me on every side.
7 Lord, rise up!
My God, save me!
Strike all my enemies in the face.
Break the teeth of sinful people.
8 Lord, you are the one who saves.
May your blessing be on your people.
Selah
