Psalms 20

1 For the end, a Psalm of David. The Lord hear you in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend you.

Načelniku godbe, psalm Davidov. Usliši te naj Gospod ob času stiske; na višavo naj te postavi ime Boga Jakobovega.

2 Send you help from the sanctuary, and aid you out of Sion.

Pošlje naj ti pomoč iz svetišča, in sè Sijona naj te podpira.

3 Remember all your sacrifice, and enrich your whole burnt offering. (Pause)

Dúha naj vse dari tvoje, in upepeli naj žgalno daritev tvojo.

4 Grant you according to your heart, and fulfil all your desire.

Dá ti naj po srci tvojem, in izpolni naj vsak sklep tvoj.

5 We will exult in your salvation, and in the name of our God shall we be magnified: the Lord fulfil all your petitions.

Prepevajmo o blaginji tvoji; in v imenu Boga našega nosimo zastave; izpolni naj Gospod vse prošnje tvoje.

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.

Zdaj spoznavam, da Gospod brani maziljenca svojega, usliši ga z nebes svetosti svoje; po največji kreposti, blaginji desnice svoje.

7 Some [glory] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will glory in the name of the Lord our God.

Ti vóz, in oni kónj, mi pa se spominjamo imena Gospoda, Boga našega.

8 They are overthrown and fallen: but we are risen, and have been set upright.

Oni se pripogibajo in padajo; mi pa vstajamo in stojimo.

9 O Lord, save the king: and hear us in whatever day we call upon you.

Gospod, reši! kralj sam naj usliši nas ob času, ko ga bodemo klicali.
