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:

TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH answers you, In a day of adversity, The Name of the God of Jacob sets you on high,

2 Send thee helpe from the Sanctuarie, and strengthen thee out of Zion.

He sends your help from the sanctuary, And supports you from Zion,

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

He remembers all your presents, And reduces your burnt-offering to ashes. (Selah)

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

He gives to you according to your heart, And fulfills all your counsel.

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.

We sing of Your salvation, And in the Name of our God set up a banner. YHWH fulfills all your requests.

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.

Now I have known That YHWH has saved His anointed, He answers him from His holy heavens, With the saving might of His right hand.

7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the Name of ye Lord our God.

Some of chariots, and some of horses, And we of the Name of our God YHWH Make mention.

8 They are brought downe and fallen, but we are risen, and stand vpright.

They have bowed and have fallen, And we have risen and station ourselves upright.

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

O YHWH, save the king, He answers us in the day we call!
