| 3But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, and the one who lifts up my head. | 3But you, O LORD, are a shield around me; you are my glory, the one who holds my head high. |
| 4I cry aloud to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain. Interlude | 4I cried out to the LORD, and he answered me from his holy mountain. Interlude |
| 5I lie down and sleep, I wake up, because the LORD sustains me. | 5I lay down and slept, yet I woke up in safety, for the LORD was watching over me. |

| 7Arise, LORD! Deliver me, my God! For you strike the jaw of all my enemies, and you break the teeth of the wicked. | 7Arise, O LORD! Rescue me, my God! Slap all my enemies in the face! Shatter the teeth of the wicked! |
| 8Deliverance comes from the LORD! May your blessing be on your people. Interlude | 8Victory comes from you, O LORD. May you bless your people. Interlude |
