Psalms 3:6 - a performance of the psalm is available here. |
This verse is a tri-cola with cadences on the supertonic and the subdominant. It has a very short second colon, one word, four syllables. David has enemies -- as do we, but he can sleep, and awaken.
אֲנִ֥י שָׁכַ֗בְתִּי וָֽאִ֫ישָׁ֥נָה הֱקִיצ֑וֹתִי כִּ֖י יְהוָ֣ה יִסְמְכֵֽנִי |
6 I lie down and I sleep. I awake, for Yahweh supports me. | |
