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