Confidence in Troubled Times
A psalm of David when he fled from his son Absalom. 2Sm 15:13-17
1Lord, how my foes increase!
There are many who attack me. 2Sm 15:12; Ps 69:4
2Many say about me,
“There is no help for him in God.” Ps 22:7-8; 71:11Selah
my glory, Ps 62:7 and the One who lifts up my head. Ps 110:7
4I cry aloud to the Lord,
and He answers me from His holy mountain. Ps 2:6; 43:3; 48:1Selah
5I lie down and sleep;
I wake again because the Lord sustains me. Lv 26:6; Ps 4:8; Pr 3:24
6I am not afraid of the thousands of people
who have taken their stand against me on every side. Ps 23:4; 27:3; 118:10-13
Save me, my God!
You strike all my enemies on the cheek; Jb 16:10; Mc 5:1
You break the teeth of the wicked. Ps 58:6
may Your blessing be on Your people. Dt 26:15Selah
