Psalms 20

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

Gospod te sliši na dan stiske, ime Jakobovega Boga te brani,

2 send you help from the sanctuary, grant you support from Zion,

pošlje ti pomoč iz svetišča in te okrepi s Siona,

3 remember all your offerings, and accept your burned sacrifice. (Selah)

spominja se vseh tvojih daritev in sprejema tvojo žgalno daritev. (Sela)

4 May he grant you your heart’s desire, and fulfill all your counsel.

Usliši te glede na tvoje lastno srce in izpolni vso tvojo namero.

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

Veselili se bomo v tvoji rešitvi duše in svoje prapore bomo postavili v imenu svojega Boga. Gospod izpolnjuje vse tvoje prošnje.

6 Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength of his right hand.

Sedaj vem, da Gospod rešuje svojega maziljenca; iz svojih svetih nebes ga bo uslišal z rešujočo močjo svoje desnice.

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

Nekateri zaupajo v bojne vozove, nekateri pa v konje, toda mi se bomo spominjali imena Gospoda, svojega Boga.

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

Oni so ponižani in padli, toda mi vstanemo in stojimo pokončno.

9 Save, LORD! Let the King answer us when we call!

Reši, Gospod. Naj nas sliši kralj, ko kličemo.
