Psalms 20

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

In finem. Psalmus David. Exaudiat te Dominus in die tribulationis; protegat te nomen Dei Jacob.

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

Mittat tibi auxilium de sancto, et de Sion tueatur te.

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

Memor sit omnis sacrificii tui, et holocaustum tuum pingue fiat.

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

Tribuat tibi secundum cor tuum, et omne consilium tuum confirmet.

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.

Lætabimur in salutari tuo; et in nomine Dei nostri magnificabimur.

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.

Impleat Dominus omnes petitiones tuas; nunc cognovi quoniam salvum fecit Dominus christum suum. Exaudiet illum de cælo sancto suo, in potentatibus salus dexteræ ejus.

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

Hi in curribus, et hi in equis; nos autem in nomine Domini Dei nostri invocabimus.

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

Ipsi obligati sunt, et ceciderunt; nos autem surreximus, et erecti sumus.

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

Domine, salvum fac regem, et exaudi nos in die qua invocaverimus te.
