Psalms 20

1 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;

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

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

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

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

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

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

Grant you according to your own heart, and fulfill all your counsel.

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

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, 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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