Psalms 20

1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The Lord heare thee in the day of trouble: the name of ye God of Iaakob defend 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 Send thee helpe from the Sanctuarie, and strengthen thee out of Zion.

願祂從聖所救護你，願祂由熙雍扶助你！

3 Let him remember all thine offerings, and turne thy burnt offerings into asshes. (Selah)

願祂追念你的一切祭獻，願祂悅納你的全燔祭獻！

4 And graunt thee according to thine heart, and fulfill all thy purpose:

願祂滿全你心中的志願，願祂玉成你的一切籌算！

5 That we may reioyce in thy saluation, and set vp the banner in the Name of our God, when the Lord shall performe 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 the Lord will helpe his anointed, and will heare him from his Sanctuarie, by the mightie helpe 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 trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the Name of ye Lord 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 brought downe and fallen, but we are risen, and stand vpright.

他們必將倒地喪命。我們卻將挺身立定。

9 Saue Lord: let the King heare vs in the day that we call.

上主，求你賜給君王獲勝，我們求您時，請您俯允我們。
