詩篇 20

1 【求賜君王勝利】 達味詩歌，交與樂官。 願上主在憂患之日，俯允你，願雅各伯的天主，保祐你！

For the leader. A psalm of David. The Lord answer you in the day of distress, the name of the Jacob’s God protect you,

2 願祂從聖所救護你，願祂由熙雍扶助你！

sending you help from the temple, out of Zion supporting you.

3 願祂追念你的一切祭獻，願祂悅納你的全燔祭獻！

All your meal-offerings may he remember, your burnt-offerings look on with favour. (Selah)

4 願祂滿全你心中的志願，願祂玉成你的一切籌算！

May he grant you your heart’s desire, and bring all your plans to pass.

5 我們要因你的勝利歡舞，奉我們天主的名豎立旗鼓：我的一切請求，願上主成就！

We will shout then for joy at your victory, and rejoice in the name of our God. May the Lord grant your every request.

6 我深信上主必賞祂的受傅者獲勝，以無敵右手救拯，從神聖的高天俯聽。

Now I am sure that the Lord will help his anointed. From his temple in heaven he will answer by his mighty triumphant right hand.

7 他們或仗恃戰車，他們或仗恃戢馬；我們只以上主，我們天主的名自誇。

Some in chariots are strong, some in horses; but our strength is the Lord our God.

8 他們必將倒地喪命。我們卻將挺身立定。

They will totter and fall, while we rise and stand firm.

9 上主，求你賜給君王獲勝，我們求您時，請您俯允我們。

Give victory, Lord, to the king, and answer us when we call.
