1 LORD, how my foes are multiplied; how many now against me rise! 2 Many are those who’ve said to me that I in vain on God rely. 3 But you are my protector, LORD; you are a shield around me spread. My glory comes from you alone, the one who raises up my head. 4 When to the LORD I lift my voice, in face of those who hate me still, The LORD will hear my cry to him and answer from his holy hill. 5 I settle down and sleep in peace; I wake in God’s upholding hand. 6 I will not fear ten thousand foes who circling round against me stand. 7 Arise, O LORD! Save me, my God! Deliver for your mercy’s sake! Strike all my en’mies on the jaw; the wicked’s teeth in pieces break. 8 The LORD alone deliverance sends; no other source of help have we. Therefore upon your people all may your eternal blessing be. – v. 1 Book of Psalms for Worship; v. 2 Benner vv. 3-8 Sing Psalms, alt.
