Psalms 20

1 To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David. May the Lord give ear to you in the day of trouble; may you be placed on high by the name of the God of Jacob;

Oígate, Jehová, en el día de la angustia: ensálcete el nombre del Dios de Jacob.

2 May he send you help from the holy place, and give you strength from Zion;

Envíete ayuda desde el santuario, y desde Sión te sustente.

3 May he keep all your offerings in mind, and be pleased with the fat of your burned offerings; (Selah)

Tenga memoria de todos tus presentes, y encenice tu holocausto. (Selah)

4 May he give you your heart's desire, and put all your purposes into effect.

Déte conforme a tu corazón, y cumpla todo tu consejo.

5 We will be glad in your salvation, and in the name of our God we will put up our flags: may the Lord give you all your requests.

Alegrarnos hemos con tu salud, y en el nombre de nuestro Dios alzarémos pendón: cumpla Jehová todas tus peticiones.

6 Now am I certain that the Lord gives salvation to his king; he will give him an answer from his holy heaven with the strength of salvation in his right hand.

Ahora he conocido que Jehová ha guardado a su ungido: oírle ha desde los cielos de su santidad con las valentías de la salud de su diestra.

7 Some put their faith in carriages and some in horses; but we will be strong in the name of the Lord our God.

Estos en carros, y aquellos en caballos confían: mas nosotros del nombre de Jehová nuestro Dios tendremos memoria.

8 They are bent down and made low; but we have been lifted up.

Estos arrodillaron, y cayeron: mas nosotros nos levantamos, y nos enhestamos.

9 Come to our help, Lord: let the king give ear to our cry.

Jehová, salva: que el rey nos oiga el día que le invocáremos.
