The security of God's protectionI cried aloud The phrase "I cried aloud" in Psalm 3:4 reflects a deep, earnest plea from the psalmist, King David, to God. The Hebrew root for "cried" is "קָרָא" (qara), which conveys a sense of calling out or proclaiming. This is not a silent prayer but a vocal expression of distress and dependence on God. Historically, this psalm is set during the time when David fled from his son Absalom, a period of intense personal turmoil and danger. The act of crying aloud signifies David's acknowledgment of his inability to handle the situation alone and his reliance on divine intervention. It is a reminder to believers that God hears our cries, no matter how desperate or loud they may be. to the LORD and He answered me from His holy mountain Parallel Commentaries ...
