Verse 4 is found in chapter 3 of Psalms. Psalm 3 is a prayer spoken in the midst of threat and persecution. David begins by describing the multiplication of his adversaries, but gradually shifts attention from the number of enemies to God as his shield, glory, and sustainer. Nighttime rest becomes especially significant: even surrounded by danger, the petitioner can lie down because he recognizes that his ultimate security does not depend on military superiority, but on the presence of the Lord.

Aber du, HERR, bist der Schild für mich und der mich zu Ehren setzt und mein Haupt aufrichtet.

Io ho colla mia voce gridato al Signore, Ed egli mi ha risposto dal monte della sua santità. Sela.
Com a minha voz clamei ao SENHOR, e ouviu-me desde o seu santo monte. (Selá.)
我用我的聲音求告耶和華, 他就從他的聖山上應允我。(細拉)
