< Psalms 20 >
1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David. May the Lord hear you in the day of tribulation. May the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
YHWH hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the Elohim of Jacob defend thee;
2 May he send you help from the sanctuary and watch over you from Zion.
Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;
3 May he be mindful of all your sacrifices, and may your burnt-offerings be fat.
Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; (Selah)
4 May he grant to you according to your heart, and confirm all your counsels.
Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
5 We will rejoice in your salvation, and in the name of our God, we will be magnified.
We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our Elohim we will set up our banners: YHWH fulfil all thy petitions.
6 May the Lord fulfill all your petitions. Now I know that the Lord has saved his Christ. He will hear him from his holy heaven. The salvation of his right hand is in his power.
Now know I that YHWH saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we will call upon the name of the Lord our God.
Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of YHWH our Elohim.
8 They have been bound, and they have fallen. But we have risen up, and we 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 on the day that we will call upon you.
Save, YHWH: let the king hear us when we call.
