A psalm of David when he fled from his son Absalom.Lord, how my foes increase!
There are many who attack me.

Many say about me,
“There is no help for him in God.”Selah

Many are saying, “Who can show us anything good?”
Look on us with favor, Lord.

Punish them, God;
let them fall by their own schemes.
Drive them out because of their many crimes,
for they rebel against You.

Many bulls surround me;
strong ones of Bashan encircle me.

I have heard the gossip of many;
terror is on every side.
When they conspired against me,
they plotted to take my life.

Many pains come to the wicked,
but the one who trusts in the Lord
will have faithful love surrounding him.

Many adversities come to the one who is righteous,
but the Lord delivers him from them all.

I will praise You in the great congregation;
I will exalt You among many people.

The little that the righteous man has is better
than the abundance of many wicked people.

But my enemies are vigorous and powerful;
many hate me for no reason.

He put a new song in my mouth,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear
and put their trust in the Lord.

Lord my God, You have done many things—
Your wonderful works and Your plans for us;
none can compare with You.
If I were to report and speak of them,
they are more than can be told.

I remember this as I pour out my heart:
how I walked with many,
leading the festive procession to the house of God,
with joyful and thankful shouts.

Though many are against me,
He will redeem me from my battle unharmed.

My adversaries trample me all day,
for many arrogantly fight against me.

Add days to the king’s life;
may his years span many generations.

Mount Bashan is God’s towering mountain;
Mount Bashan is a mountain of many peaks.

I have become an ominous sign to many,
but You are my strong refuge.

You caused me to experience
many troubles and misfortunes,
but You will revive me again.
You will bring me up again,
even from the depths of the earth.

Make us rejoice for as many days as You have humbled us,
for as many years as we have seen adversity.

Greater than the roar of many waters—
the mighty breakers of the sea—
the Lord on high is majestic.

The Lord reigns! Let the earth rejoice;
let the many coasts and islands be glad.

Our fathers in Egypt did not grasp
the significance of Your wonderful works
or remember Your many acts of faithful love;
instead, they rebelled by the sea—the Red Sea.

He rescued them many times,
but they continued to rebel deliberately
and were beaten down by their sin.

I will fervently thank the Lord with my mouth;
I will praise Him in the presence of many.

How many days must Your servant wait?
When will You execute judgment on my persecutors?

Your compassions are many, Lord;
give me life according to Your judgments.

My persecutors and foes are many.
I have not turned from Your decrees.

He struck down many nations
and slaughtered mighty kings:
