< Psalms 20 >
1 I desire that Yahweh will answer you [when you call out to him] when you have troubles! God is the one whom ([our ancestor] Jacob/the Israeli people) [worshiped]; I desire that he will protect you [MTY] [from being harmed by your enemies].
Para o músico chefe. Um Salmo de David. Que Yahweh lhe responda no dia do problema. Que o nome do Deus de Jacob o coloque no alto,
2 I desire/hope that he will reach out from his sacred temple and help you, and aid you from [where he lives] on Zion [Hill].
send você ajuda a partir do santuário, conceder-lhe apoio de Zion,
3 I desire/hope that he will accept all the offerings that you give him to be burned [on the altar], and all your [other] offerings.
remember todas as suas ofertas, e aceitar seu sacrifício queimado. (Selah)
4 I want him to give to you what you desire, and that you will be able to accomplish all that you desire to do.
Que ele lhe conceda o desejo do seu coração, e cumprir todos os seus conselhos.
5 When [we hear that] you have defeated [your enemies], we will shout joyfully. We will lift up a banner proclaiming that it is God [MTY] [who helps us](inc). I want Yahweh to [do for you] all that you request him to do.
Nós triunfaremos em sua salvação. Em nome de nosso Deus, colocaremos nossas bandeiras. Que Yahweh atenda a todos os seus pedidos.
6 I know now that Yahweh rescues [me], the one whom he has chosen [to be king]. From his holy place in heaven he will answer me, and he will save me by his great power [MTY].
Now Eu sei que Yahweh salva seu ungido. Ele lhe responderá de seu santo céu, com a força salvadora de sua mão direita.
7 Some [kings] trust that because they have chariots [they will be able to defeat their enemies], and some trust that their horses [will enable them to defeat their enemies], but we will trust in the power [MTY] of Yahweh our God.
Some confiança em carruagens, e alguns em cavalos, mas confiamos no nome de Yahweh nosso Deus.
8 Some kings will stumble and fall down, but we will be strong and (not be moved/continue standing firm).
Eles são curvados e caídos, mas nos levantamos, e nos levantamos de pé.
9 Yahweh, enable [me], your king, to defeat our enemies! Answer us when we call out to you [to help us.]
Save, Yahweh! Que o Rei nos responda quando chamarmos!
