< Psalms 20 >
1 To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob protect thee;
【求賜君王勝利】 達味詩歌,交與樂官。 願上主在憂患之日,俯允你,願雅各伯的天主,保祐你!
2 May he send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;
願祂從聖所救護你,願祂由熙雍扶助你!
3 Remember all thine oblations, and accept thy burnt-offering; (Selah)
願祂追念你的一切祭獻,願祂悅納你的全燔祭獻!
4 Grant thee according to thy heart, and fulfil all thy counsels.
願祂滿全你心中的志願,願祂玉成你的一切籌算!
5 We will triumph in thy salvation, and in the name of our God will we set up our banners. Jehovah fulfil all thy petitions!
我們要因你的勝利歡舞,奉我們天主的名豎立旗鼓:我的一切請求,願上主成就!
6 Now know I that Jehovah saveth his anointed; he answereth him from the heavens of his holiness, with the saving strength of his right hand.
我深信上主必賞祂的受傅者獲勝,以無敵右手救拯,從神聖的高天俯聽。
7 Some make mention of chariots, and some of horses, but we of the name of Jehovah our God.
他們或仗恃戰車,他們或仗恃戢馬;我們只以上主,我們天主的名自誇。
8 They are bowed down and fallen; but we are risen and stand upright.
他們必將倒地喪命。我們卻將挺身立定。
9 Save, Jehovah! Let the king answer us in the day we call.
上主,求你賜給君王獲勝,我們求您時,請您俯允我們。
