2Many are saying of me,
“God will not deliver him.”
SelahA word of uncertain meaning, occurring frequently in the Psalms; possibly a musical term

3But you are a shield around me, O LORD;
you bestow glory on me and liftOr LORD, / my Glorious One, who lifts up my head.

4To the LORD I cry aloud,
and he answers me from his holy hill.
Selah

5I lie down and sleep;
I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.

6I will not fear the tens of thousands
drawn up against me on every side.

7Arise, O LORD!
Deliver me, O my God!
Strike all my enemies on the jaw;
break the teeth of the wicked.

8From the LORD comes deliverance.
May your blessing be on your people.
Selah
