Psalms 20

1 For the end, a Psalm of David. The Lord hear you in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend you.

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 you help from the sanctuary, and aid you out of Sion.

He sends your help from the sanctuary, And supports you from Zion,

3 Remember all your sacrifice, and enrich your whole burnt offering. (Pause)

He remembers all your presents, And reduces your burnt-offering to ashes. (Selah)

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

He gives to you according to your heart, And fulfills all your counsel.

5 We will exult in your salvation, and in the name of our God shall we be magnified: the Lord fulfil all your petitions.

We sing of Your salvation, And in the Name of our God set up a banner. YHWH fulfills all your requests.

6 Now I know that the Lord has saved his Christ: he shall hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is mighty.

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 [glory] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will glory in 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 overthrown and fallen: but we are risen, and have been set upright.

They have bowed and have fallen, And we have risen and station ourselves upright.

9 O Lord, save the king: and hear us in whatever day we call upon you.

O YHWH, save the king, He answers us in the day we call!
