- 1[A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his son.] LORD, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me.מִזְמ֥וֹר לְדָוִ֑ד בְּ֝בָרְח֗וֹ מִפְּנֵ֤י אַבְשָׁל֬וֹם בְּנֽוֹ
- 2Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.יְ֭הוָה מָֽה רַבּ֣וּ צָרָ֑י רַ֝בִּ֗ים קָמִ֥ים עָלָֽי
- 3But thou, O LORD, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.רַבִּים֮ אֹמְרִ֪ים לְנַ֫פְשִׁ֥י אֵ֤ין יְֽשׁוּעָ֓תָה בֵֽאלֹהִ֬ים סֶֽלָה
- 4I cried unto the LORD with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.וְאַתָּ֣ה יְ֭הוָה מָגֵ֣ן בַּעֲדִ֑י כְּ֝בוֹדִ֗י וּמֵרִ֥ים רֹאשִֽׁי
- 5I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the LORD sustained me.ק֭וֹלִי אֶל יְהוָ֣ה אֶקְרָ֑א וַיַּֽעֲנֵ֨נִי מֵהַ֖ר קָדְשׁ֣וֹ סֶֽלָה
- 6I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.אֲנִ֥י שָׁכַ֗בְתִּי וָֽאִ֫ישָׁ֥נָה הֱקִיצ֑וֹתִי כִּ֖י יְהוָ֣ה יִסְמְכֵֽנִי
- 7Arise, O LORD; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly.לֹֽא אִ֭ירָא מֵרִבְב֥וֹת עָ֑ם אֲשֶׁ֥ר סָ֝בִ֗יב שָׁ֣תוּ עָלָֽי
- 8Salvation belongeth unto the LORD: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.ק֘וּמָ֤ה יְהוָ֨ה הוֹשִׁ֘יעֵ֤נִי אֱלֹהַ֗י כִּֽי הִכִּ֣יתָ אֶת כָּל אֹיְבַ֣י לֶ֑חִי שִׁנֵּ֖י רְשָׁעִ֣ים שִׁבַּֽרְתָּ

Hebrew verse gematria
YHWSA calculates these totals directly from every consonant in the tagged Hebrew source line using the Carlo Suarès letter-number system; vowel points and cantillation marks do not add values. The totals are not reverse-mapped from English. A matching number is a comparison to investigate, not proof that two passages mean the same thing.
