1 The LORD hear you in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend you;

May Adonai answer you in the day of trouble. May the name of the God of Jacob [Supplanter] set you up on high,

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

send you help from the sanctuary, grant you support from Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking],

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

remember all your offerings, and accept your burned sacrifice. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.

4 Grant you according to your own heart, and fulfill all your counsel.

May He grant you your heart’s desire, and fulfill all your counsel.

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 your yishu'ah ·salvation·. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May Adonai grant all your requests.

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 I know that Adonai saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the yesha' ·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.

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we trust the name of Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God].

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

They are bowed down and fallen, but we rise up, and stand upright.

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

Save, Adonai! Let the King answer us when we call!
