< Psalms 20 >
1 For the end, a Psalm of David. The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee.
The LORD hear you in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend you;
2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and aid thee out of Sion.
Send you help from the sanctuary, and strengthen you out of Zion;
3 Remember all thy sacrifice, and enrich thy whole-burnt-offering. (Pause)
Remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice; (Selah)
4 Grant thee according to thy heart, and fulfill all thy desire.
Grant you according to your own heart, and fulfill all your counsel.
5 We will exult in thy salvation, and in the name of our God shall we be magnified: the Lord fulfil all thy petitions.
We will rejoice in your salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfill all your petitions.
6 Now I know that the Lord has saved his Christ: he shall hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is mighty.
Now know I that the LORD saves his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
7 Some [glory] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will glory in the name of the Lord our God.
Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.
8 They are overthrown and fallen: but we are risen, and have been set upright.
They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.
9 O Lord, save the king: and hear us in whatever day we call upon thee.
Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.
