Psalms

A Psalm of David, when he fled from his son Absalom.

Deliver Me, O LORD!

2 Samuel 15:13–29

1<A Psalm. Of David. When he went in flight from Absalom his son.> Lord, how greatly are they increased who make attacks on me! in great numbers they come against me.+ 2Unnumbered are those who say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. (Selah.)+ 3But your strength, O Lord, is round me, you are my glory and the lifter up of my head.+ 4I send up a cry to the Lord with my voice, and he gives me an answer from his holy hill. (Selah.)+ 5I took my rest in sleep, and then again I was awake; for the Lord was my support.+ 6I will have no fear, though ten thousand have come round me, putting themselves against me.+ 7Come to me, Lord; keep me safe, O my God; for you have given all my haters blows on their face-bones; the teeth of the evil-doers have been broken by you.+ 8Salvation comes from the Lord; your blessing is on your people. (Selah.)+
