< Psalms 20 >

1 For the chief musician. A psalm of David. May Yahweh help you in the day of trouble; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble; The name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high;
2 and send help from the holy place to support you from Zion.
Send thee help from the sanctuary, And strengthen thee out of Zion;
3 May he call to mind all your offerings and accept your burnt sacrifice. (Selah)
Remember all thy offerings, And accept thy burnt-sacrifice; (Selah)
4 May he grant you your heart's desire and fulfill all your plans.
Grant thee thy heart’s desire, And fulfil all thy counsel.
5 Then we will rejoice in your victory, and, in the name of our God, we will raise banners. May Yahweh grant all your petitions.
We will triumph in thy salvation, And in the name of our God we will set up our banners: Jehovah fulfil all thy petitions.
6 Now I know that Yahweh will rescue his anointed one; he will answer him from his holy heaven with the strength of his right hand that can rescue him.
Now know I that Jehovah saveth his anointed; He will answer him from his holy heaven With the saving strength of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we call on Yahweh our God.
Some [trust] in chariots, and some in horses; But we will make mention of the name of Jehovah our God.
8 They will be brought down and fall, but we will rise and stand upright!
They are bowed down and fallen; But we are risen, and stand upright.
9 Yahweh, rescue the king; help us when we call.
Save, Jehovah: Let the King answer us when we call.
