Deliver me, O Lord

(2 Samuel 15:13-29)
1
O LORD, how my foes have increased! How many rise up against me!
2
Many say of me, “God will not deliver him.”
3
Selah (a) But You, O LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the One who lifts my head.
4
To the LORD I cry aloud, and He answers me from His holy mountain.
5
Selah I lie down and sleep; I wake again, for the LORD sustains me.
6
I will not fear the myriads set against me on every side.
7
Arise, O LORD! Save me, O my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked.
8
Salvation belongs to the LORD; may Your blessing be on Your people. Selah
