< Psalms 20 >
1 The LORD hear you in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend you;
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;
2 Send you help from the sanctuary, and strengthen you out of Zion;
May he send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;
3 Remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice; (Selah)
Remember all thine oblations, and accept thy burnt-offering; (Selah)
4 Grant you according to your own heart, and fulfill all your counsel.
Grant thee according to thy heart, and fulfil all thy counsels.
5 We will rejoice in your salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfill all your petitions.
We will triumph in thy salvation, and in the name of our God will we set up our banners. Jehovah fulfil all thy petitions!
6 Now know I that the LORD saves his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
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.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.

8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.
They are bowed down and fallen; but we are risen and stand upright.
9 Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.
Save, Jehovah! Let the king answer us in the day we call.
