Psalm 3:
Lord, how many adversaries I have!
How many there are who rise up against me!
How many there are who say of me,
"There is no help for him in his God."
But you, O Lord, are a shield about me;
you are my glory, the one who lifts up my head.
I call aloud upon the Lord,
and he answers me from his holy hill;
I lie down and go to sleep;
I wake again, because the Lord sustains me.
I do not fear the multitudes of people
who set themselves against me all around.
Rise up, O Lord; set me free, O my God;
surely, you will strike all my enemies across the face,
you will break the teeth of the wicked.
Deliverance belongs to the Lord.
Your blessing be upon your people!
