Psalm 3
(Maybe it's good idea to add some of the words of original Psalm.)
[SUP]3 [/SUP]But you, Lord, are a shield around me,
my glory, the One who lifts my head high.
[SUP]4 [/SUP]I call out to the Lord,
and he answers me from his holy mountain.
[SUP]5 [/SUP]I lie down and sleep;
I wake again, because the Lord sustains me.
[SUP]6 [/SUP]I will not fear though tens of thousands
assail me on every side.

Psalm 6 (reconstructed original hebrew version)
Suzanne Haïk-Vantoura (née Vantoura) (13 July 1912 – 22 October 2000) was an organist, music teacher, composer and music theorist. Her magnum opus was in the field of musicology...
"Music of the Bible Revealed" was her magnum opus; a massive work covering the entire Hebrew Bible, decoding the cantillation marks (as musical notes which support the syntax and meaning of the words) of its 24 books, to music...

Psalm 6 ... is one of David's most emotional in Hebrew. It is also one of the most characteristically "Davidic" in its melodic-verbal style. Some if not most commentators believe that it was most likely written after his affair with Bathsheba (and during its long-term consequences)...

Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck April or May, 1562 in Deventer – 16 October 1621 in Amsterdam) was a Dutch composer, organist, and pedagogue whose work straddled the end of the Renaissance and beginning of the Baroque eras. He was among the first major keyboard composers of Europe, and his work as a teacher helped establish the north German organ tradition...
Sweelinck represents the highest development of the Dutch keyboard school, and indeed represented a pinnacle in keyboard contrapuntal complexity and refinement before J.S. Bach. However, he was a skilled composer for voices as well, and composed more than 250 vocal works (chansons, madrigals, motets and Psalms)...

“By our tongues we will prevail;
our own lips will defend us—who is lord over us?”...
