Prayer in Need
O LORD, how many are my adversaries! Many rise up against me! Many are saying of me, “There is no salvation for him in God.” But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high. I call out to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain. I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the LORD sustains me. I will not fear though tens of thousands assail me on every side. Rise up, LORD! Deliver me, my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked. From the LORD comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people. SubscribePSALM 3 – Prayer in Need
- The psalm of David when he fled from the face of his son Absalom.
- Why, O Lord, are they multiplied that afflict me? many are they who rise up against me.
- Many say to my soul: There is no salvation for him in his God.
- But thou, O Lord art my protector, my glory, and the lifter up of my head.
- I have cried to the Lord with my voice: and he hath heard me from his holy hill.
- I have slept and taken my rest: and I have risen up, because the Lord hath protected me.
- I will not fear thousands of the people, surrounding me: arise, O Lord; save me, O my God.
- For thou hast struck all them who are my adversaries without cause: thou hast broken the teeth of sinners.
- Salvation is of the Lord: and thy blessing is upon thy people.
