1
Lord, my enemies have become so many; so many are rebelling* against me.
2
So many are telling me, “God can't save you!” Selah.

But you, Lord, are a shield protecting me. You give me victory;* you hold my head high.
4
I cry out to the Lord for help, and he answers me from his holy mountain. Selah.
5
I lie down to sleep, and in the morning* I wake up because the Lord takes care of me.
6
I'm not afraid of tens of thousands who surround me, people who are against me.
7
Stand up for me, Lord! Save me, my God! Hit all my enemies on the cheek; break the teeth of the wicked!

Salvation belongs to you, Lord; may you be a blessing to your people. Selah.
