Psalms 20

1 [For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] May Jehovah answer you in the day of trouble. May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high.

YHWH hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the Elohim of Jacob defend thee;

2 He will send you help from the sanctuary, and give you support from Zion.

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

3 He will remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice. (Selah)

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

4 He will grant you your heart's desire, and fulfill all your plans.

Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.

5 We will triumph in your salvation. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May Jehovah grant all your requests.

We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our Elohim we will set up our banners: YHWH fulfil all thy petitions.

6 Now I know that Jehovah saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with a mighty act of deliverance by his right hand.

Now know I that YHWH saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

7 Some [trust] in chariots, and some in horses, but we trust the name of Jehovah our God.

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of YHWH our Elohim.

8 They are bowed down and fallen, but we rise up, and stand upright.

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

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

Save, YHWH: let the king hear us when we call.
