1 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,

Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble. The name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high,

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

send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion,

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

remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt-sacrifice (Selah)

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

grant thee thy heart's desire, and fulfill all thy counsel.

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

We will triumph in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners. Jehovah fulfill all thy petitions.

6 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.

Now I know that Jehovah saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

7 Some of chariots, and some of horses, And we of the Name of our God YHWH Make mention.

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we will make mention of the name of Jehovah our God.

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

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

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

Save, Jehovah! Let the King answer us when we call.
