2 Many7227 there be which say559 of my soul5315, There is no help3444 for him in God430. Selah5542.

3 But thou, O LORD3068, art a shield4043 for me; my glory3519, and the lifter up7311 of mine head7218. for: or, about

4 I cried7121 unto the LORD3068 with my voice6963, and he heard6030 me out of his holy6944 hill2022. Selah5542.

5 I laid me down7901 and slept3462; I awaked6974; for the LORD3068 sustained5564 me.

7 Arise6965, O LORD3068; save3467 me, O my God430: for thou hast smitten5221 all mine enemies341 upon the cheek bone3895; thou hast broken7665 the teeth8127 of the ungodly7563.

8 Salvation3444 belongeth unto the LORD3068: thy blessing1293 is upon thy people5971. Selah5542.
