Psalms 20

1 Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble. The name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high,

To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. Yahweh answer thee, in the day of distress, The Name of the God of Jacob give thee safety;

2 send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion,

Send thy help out of the sanctuary, and, out of Zion, sustain thee;

3 remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt-sacrifice (Selah)

Remember every present of thine, and, thine ascending-sacrifice, esteem. (Selah)

4 grant thee thy heart's desire, and fulfill all thy counsel.

Give thee according to thy heart, and, all thy purposes, fulfil.

5 We will triumph in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners. Jehovah fulfill all thy petitions.

We will shout aloud in thy salvation, and, in the Name of our God, shall we become great, Yahweh fulfil all thy petitions.

6 Now I know that Jehovah saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

Now, do I know that Yahweh, hath saved, his Anointed One, —He answereth him out of his holy heavens, by the mighty saving deeds of his own right hand.

7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we will make mention of the name of Jehovah our God.

These, by chariots, and, those, by horses, but, we, by the Name of Yahweh our God, will prevail.

8 They are bowed down and fallen, but we are risen, and stand upright.

They, have bowed down and fallen, but, we, have arisen, and stand upright.

9 Save, Jehovah! Let the King answer us when we call.

Yahweh, hath saved the king. Answer us, then, on the day when we call.
