Psalms 20

1 THE Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;

Načelniku godbe, psalm Davidov. Usliši te naj Gospod ob času stiske; na višavo naj te postavi ime Boga Jakobovega.

2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;

Pošlje naj ti pomoč iz svetišča, in sè Sijona naj te podpira.

3 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; (Selah)

Dúha naj vse dari tvoje, in upepeli naj žgalno daritev tvojo.

4 Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.

Dá ti naj po srci tvojem, in izpolni naj vsak sklep tvoj.

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.

Prepevajmo o blaginji tvoji; in v imenu Boga našega nosimo zastave; izpolni naj Gospod vse prošnje tvoje.

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.

Zdaj spoznavam, da Gospod brani maziljenca svojega, usliši ga z nebes svetosti svoje; po največji kreposti, blaginji desnice svoje.

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

Ti vóz, in oni kónj, mi pa se spominjamo imena Gospoda, Boga našega.

8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.

Oni se pripogibajo in padajo; mi pa vstajamo in stojimo.

9 Save, Lord: let the king hear us when we call.

Gospod, reši! kralj sam naj usliši nas ob času, ko ga bodemo klicali.
