< 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,
in finem psalmus David exaudiat te Dominus in die tribulationis protegat te nomen Dei Iacob
2 He sends your help from the sanctuary, And supports you from Zion,
mittat tibi auxilium de sancto et de Sion tueatur te
3 He remembers all your presents, And reduces your burnt-offering to ashes. (Selah)
memor sit omnis sacrificii tui et holocaustum tuum pingue fiat diapsalma
4 He gives to you according to your heart, And fulfills all your counsel.
tribuat tibi secundum cor tuum et omne consilium tuum confirmet
5 We sing of Your salvation, And in the Name of our God set up a banner. YHWH fulfills all your requests.
laetabimur in salutari tuo et in nomine Dei nostri magnificabimur
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.
impleat Dominus omnes petitiones tuas nunc cognovi quoniam salvum fecit Dominus christum suum exaudiet illum de caelo sancto suo in potentatibus salus dexterae eius
7 Some of chariots, and some of horses, And we of the Name of our God YHWH Make mention.
hii in curribus et hii in equis nos autem in nomine Domini Dei nostri invocabimus
8 They have bowed and have fallen, And we have risen and station ourselves upright.
ipsi obligati sunt et ceciderunt nos vero surreximus et erecti sumus
9 O YHWH, save the king, He answers us in the day we call!
Domine salvum fac regem et exaudi nos in die qua invocaverimus te
