Psalm 3

Neue evangelistische Übersetzung

von Karl-Heinz Vanheiden
1 Ein Psalmlied von David, als er vor seinem Sohn Abschalom auf der Flucht war.2 Jahwe, es sind viele, die mich bedrängen! / So viele stehen auf gegen mich.3 Viele gibt es, die von mir sagen: / „Selbst Gott rettet ihn nicht mehr!“♪[1]4 Aber du, Jahwe, bist ein Schild um mich her, / du bist meine Ehre, du richtest mich auf.5 Immer wieder schrie ich zu Jahwe. / Er antwortete mir von seinem heiligen Berg. ♪6 Ich legte mich nieder und schlief ein. / Ich bin erwacht, weil Jahwe mich hält.7 Ich fürchte nicht die vielen tausend Krieger, / die mich von allen Seiten umstellen.8 Steh auf, Jahwe! / Rette mich, mein Gott! / Denn du zerschlägst meinen Feinden den Kiefer, / den Gottlosen zerbrichst du das Gebiss.9 Bei Jahwe ist Rettung! / Dein Segen sei auf deinem Volk! ♪

Psalm 3

New International Reader’s Version

von Biblica
1 LORD, I have so many enemies! So many people are rising up against me!2 Many are saying about me, ‘God will not save him.’3 LORD, you are like a shield that keeps me safe. You bring me honour. You help me win the battle.4 I call out to the LORD. He answers me from his holy mountain.5 I lie down and sleep. I wake up again, because the LORD takes care of me.6 I won’t be afraid even though tens of thousands attack me on every side.7 LORD, rise up! My God, save me! Strike all my enemies in the face. Break the teeth of sinful people.8 LORD, you are the one who saves. May your blessing be on your people.

Psalm 3

English Standard Version

1 A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son. O Lord, how many are my foes! Many are rising against me; (2Sam 15,12; 2Sam 15,14; 2Sam 18,31)2 many are saying of my soul, “There is no salvation for him in God.” [1] (2Sam 16,8; Ps 71,11)3 But you, O Lord, are a shield about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head. (1Mo 15,1; Hi 1,10; Hi 10,15; Ps 27,5; Ps 28,7; Ps 84,9; Ps 119,114)4 I cried aloud to the Lord, and he answered me from his holy hill. (Ps 2,6; Ps 6,8; Ps 34,4; Ps 34,6; Ps 60,5; Ps 77,1; Ps 108,6; Ps 142,1)5 I lay down and slept; I woke again, for the Lord sustained me. (3Mo 26,6; Hi 11,18; Ps 4,8; Spr 3,24)6 I will not be afraid of many thousands of people who have set themselves against me all around. (1Kön 20,12; Ps 23,4; Ps 27,3; Jes 22,7)7 Arise, O Lord! Save me, O my God! For you strike all my enemies on the cheek; you break the teeth of the wicked. (4Mo 10,35; Hi 16,10; Hi 29,17; Ps 7,6; Ps 9,19; Ps 10,12; Ps 58,6)8 Salvation belongs to the Lord; your blessing be on your people! (Ps 37,39; Ps 62,7; Jes 43,11; Jes 45,21; Jer 3,23; Hos 13,4; Jon 2,9; Offb 7,10; Offb 19,1)
