Psalm 3:1-8

God takes care of his people

1 Lord, every day I have more enemies.

Many people fight against me.

2 They say about me,

‘God will not save him.’

3 But Lord, you are like a shield for me.

You are the one who gives me honour.

You lift my head up high.

4 I called aloud to the Lord.

He answered me from his holy mountain.

5 I lie down and I sleep.

Then I wake up, because the Lord takes care of me.

6 Even if 10,000 enemies are all around me to attack me,

I will not be afraid of them.

7 Lord, stand up! My God, save me from my enemies!

Hit all my enemies in the face.

Break the teeth of those bad people.

8 Lord, you are the one who saves us.

Please bless your people.
