< Psalms 20 >
1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David. The LORD answer thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high;
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 forth thy help from the sanctuary, and support thee out of Zion;
He sends your help from the sanctuary, And supports you from Zion,
3 Receive the memorial of all thy meal-offerings, and accept the fat of thy burnt-sacrifice; (Selah)
He remembers all your presents, And reduces your burnt-offering to ashes. (Selah)
4 Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
He gives to you according to your heart, And fulfills all your counsel.
5 We will shout for joy in thy victory, and in the name of our God we will set up our standards; the LORD fulfil 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 saveth His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven with the mighty acts of His saving 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 make mention of the name of the LORD our God.
Some of chariots, and some of horses, And we of the Name of our God YHWH Make mention.
8 They are bowed down and fallen; but we are risen, and stand upright.
They have bowed and have fallen, And we have risen and station ourselves upright.
9 Save, LORD; let the King answer us in the day that we call.
O YHWH, save the king, He answers us in the day we call!
