Psalm 3:1-3
EasyEnglish Bible

This is a song that David wrote when he ran away from his son, Absalom.[a]

A morning song

3 Lord, every day I have more enemies.
    Many people fight against me.
2 They say about me,
    ‘God will not save him.’
Selah.
3 But Lord, you are like a shield for me.[b]
    You are the one who gives me honour.
    You lift my head up high.
