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

Psalmus David, in finem. Exaudiat te Dominus in die tribulationis: protegat te nomen Dei Iacob.

2 and send help from the holy place to support you from Zion.

Mittat tibi auxilium de sancto: et de Sion tueatur te.

3 May he call to mind all your offerings and accept your burnt sacrifice. (Selah)

Memor sit omnis sacrificii tui: et holocaustum tuum pingue fiat.

4 May he grant you your heart's desire and fulfill all your plans.

Tribuat tibi secundum cor tuum: et omne consilium tuum confirmet.

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.

Laetabimur in salutari tuo: et in nomine Dei nostri magnificabimur.

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.

Impleat Dominus omnes petitiones tuas: nunc cognovi quoniam salvum fecit Dominus CHRISTUM suum. Exaudiat illum de caelo sancto suo: in potentatibus salus dexterae eius.

7 Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we call on Yahweh our God.

Hi in curribus, et hi in equis: nos autem in nomine Domini Dei nostri invocabimus.

8 They will be brought down and fall, but we will rise and stand upright!

Ipsi obligati sunt, et ceciderunt: nos autem surreximus et erecti sumus.

9 Yahweh, rescue the king; help us when we call.

Domine salvum fac regem: et exaudi nos in die, qua invocaverimus te.
