A psalm of David, regarding the time David fled from his son Absalom.
1 O LORD, I have so many enemies;
so many are against me.
1 O LORD, I have so many enemies;
so many are against me.
3 But you, O LORD, are a shield around me;
you are my glory, the one who holds my head high.
you are my glory, the one who holds my head high.
6 I am not afraid of ten thousand enemies
who surround me on every side.
who surround me on every side.
7 Arise, O LORD!
Rescue me, my God!
Slap all my enemies in the face!
Shatter the teeth of the wicked!
Rescue me, my God!
Slap all my enemies in the face!
Shatter the teeth of the wicked!
