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 Chief Musician. A Melody of David. Yahweh answer thee, in the day of distress, The Name of the God of Jacob give thee safety;

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

Send thy help out of the sanctuary, and, out of Zion, sustain thee;

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

Remember every present of thine, and, thine ascending-sacrifice, esteem. (Selah)

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

Give thee according to thy heart, and, all thy purposes, fulfil.

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 will shout aloud in thy salvation, and, in the Name of our God, shall we become great, Yahweh fulfil all thy petitions.

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, do I know that Yahweh, hath saved, his Anointed One, —He answereth him out of his holy heavens, by the mighty saving deeds of his own right hand.

7 Some [glory] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will glory in the name of the Lord our God.

These, by chariots, and, those, by horses, but, we, by the Name of Yahweh our God, will prevail.

8 They are overthrown and fallen: but we are risen, and have been set upright.

They, have bowed down and fallen, but, we, have arisen, and stand upright.

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

Yahweh, hath saved the king. Answer us, then, on the day when we call.
