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;

לַמְנַצֵּחַ מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ יַֽעַנְךָ יְהוָה בְּיוֹם צָרָה יְשַׂגֶּבְךָ שֵׁם ׀ אֱלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹֽב׃

2 May he send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;

יִשְׁלַֽח־עֶזְרְךָ מִקֹּדֶשׁ וּמִצִיּוֹן יִסְעָדֶֽךָּ׃

3 Remember all thine oblations, and accept thy burnt-offering; (Selah)

יִזְכֹּר כָּל־מִנְחֹתֶךָ וְעוֹלָתְךָ יְדַשְּׁנֶה סֶֽלָה׃

4 Grant thee according to thy heart, and fulfil all thy counsels.

יִֽתֶּן־לְךָ כִלְבָבֶךָ וְֽכָל־עֲצָתְךָ יְמַלֵּֽא׃

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!

נְרַנְּנָה ׀ בִּישׁוּעָתֶךָ וּבְשֵֽׁם־אֱלֹהֵינוּ נִדְגֹּל יְמַלֵּא יְהוָה כָּל־מִשְׁאֲלוֹתֶֽיךָ׃

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.

עַתָּה יָדַעְתִּי כִּי הוֹשִׁיעַ ׀ יְהוָה מְשִׁיחוֹ יַעֲנֵהוּ מִשְּׁמֵי קָדְשׁוֹ בִּגְבֻרוֹת יֵשַׁע יְמִינֽוֹ׃

7 Some make mention of chariots, and some of horses, but we of the name of Jehovah our God.

אֵלֶּה בָרֶכֶב וְאֵלֶּה בַסּוּסִים וַאֲנַחְנוּ ׀ בְּשֵׁם־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ נַזְכִּֽיר׃

8 They are bowed down and fallen; but we are risen and stand upright.

הֵמָּה כָּרְעוּ וְנָפָלוּ וַאֲנַחְנוּ קַּמְנוּ וַנִּתְעוֹדָֽד׃

9 Save, Jehovah! Let the king answer us in the day we call.

יְהוָה הוֹשִׁיעָה הַמֶּלֶךְ יַעֲנֵנוּ בְיוֹם־קָרְאֵֽנוּ׃
