Psalms 20

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,

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

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

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

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

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

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

Grant you according to your own heart, and fulfill all your 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 rejoice in your salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfill all your 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 know I that the LORD saves his anointed; he will hear 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 remember the name of the LORD our God.

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

They are brought 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, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.
