Psalms 20

1 For the music director. A psalm of David. May the Lord answer you when you are in trouble; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

伶長にうたはしめたるダビデのうた ねがはくはヱホバなやみの日になんぢにこたヘヤユブのかみの名なんぢを高にあげ

2 May the Lord send you help from the sanctuary, and may he support you from Zion.

聖所より援助をなんぢにおくりシオンより能力をなんぢにあたへ

3 May the Lord remember all your offerings, and accept all your burnt sacrifices. (Selah)

汝のもろもろの献物をみこころにとめ なんぢの燔祭をうけたまはんことを (セラ)

4 May the Lord give you whatever you really want; may he make all your plans successful.

ねがはくはなんちがこころの願望をゆるし なんぢの謀略をことごとく遂しめたまはんことを

5 May we shout for joy over your victory, and set up banners in the name of our God. May the Lord answer all your requests.

我儕なんぢの救によりて歓びうたひ われらの神の名によりて旗をたてん ねがはくはヱホバ汝のもろもろの求をとげしめたまはんことを

6 Now I know that the Lord saves the one he has anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, and save his anointed by his powerful right hand.

われ今ヱホバその受膏者をすくひたまふを知る ヱホバそのきよき天より右の手なるすくひの力にてかれに應へたまはん

7 Some trust in chariots and some in war horses, but we trust in who the Lord our God is.

あるひは車をたのみあるひは馬をたのみとする者あり されどわれらはわが神ヱホバの名をとなへん

8 They collapse and fall down, but we rise and stand up.

かれらは屈みまた仆るわれらは起てかたくたてり

9 May the Lord save the king! Please answer us when we call for help!

ヱホバよ王をすくひたまへ われらがよぶとき應へたまへ
