< Psalms 20 >
1 THE Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;
To victorie, the salm of Dauid. The Lord here thee in the dai of tribulacioun; the name of God of Jacob defende thee.
2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;
Sende he helpe to thee fro the hooli place; and fro Syon defende he thee.
3 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; (Selah)
Be he myndeful of al thi sacrifice; and thi brent sacrifice be maad fat.
4 Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
Yyue he to thee aftir thin herte; and conferme he al thi counsel.
5 We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the Lord fulfil all thy petitions.
We schulen be glad in thin helthe; and we schulen be magnyfied in the name of oure God.
6 Now know I that the Lord saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
The Lord fille alle thin axyngis; nowe Y haue knowe, that the Lord hath maad saaf his crist. He schal here hym fro his hooly heuene; the helthe of his riyt hond is in poweris.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord our God.
Thes in charis, and these in horsis; but we schulen inwardli clepe in the name of oure Lord God.
8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.
Thei ben boundun, and felden doun; but we han rise, and ben reisid.
9 Save, Lord: let the king hear us when we call.
Lord, make thou saaf the kyng; and here thou vs in the dai in which we inwardli clepen thee.
