1 LORD, how my foes increase! There are many who attack me.
2 Many say about me, "There is no help for him in God." Selah
3 But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head.
4 I cry aloud to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain. Selah
5 I lie down and sleep; I wake again because the LORD sustains me.
6 I will not be afraid of thousands of people who have taken their stand against me on every side.
7 Rise up, LORD! Save me, my God! You strike all my enemies on the cheek; you break the teeth of the wicked.
8 Salvation belongs to the LORD; may your blessing be on your people. Selah
