Ψαλμοί 20

1 εἰς τὸ τέλος ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυιδ ἐπακούσαι σου κύριος ἐν ἡμέρᾳ θλίψεως ὑπερασπίσαι σου τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ θεοῦ Ιακωβ

Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble. The name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high,

2 ἐξαποστείλαι σοι βοήθειαν ἐξ ἁγίου καὶ ἐκ Σιων ἀντιλάβοιτό σου

send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion,

3 μνησθείη πάσης θυσίας σου καὶ τὸ ὁλοκαύτωμά σου πιανάτω διάψαλμα

remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt-sacrifice (Selah)

4 δῴη σοι κατὰ τὴν καρδίαν σου καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν βουλήν σου πληρώσαι

grant thee thy heart's desire, and fulfill all thy counsel.

5 ἀγαλλιασόμεθα ἐν τῷ σωτηρίῳ σου καὶ ἐν ὀνόματι θεοῦ ἡμῶν μεγαλυνθησόμεθα πληρώσαι κύριος πάντα τὰ αἰτήματά σου

We will triumph in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners. Jehovah fulfill all thy petitions.

6 νῦν ἔγνων ὅτι ἔσωσεν κύριος τὸν χριστὸν αὐτοῦ ἐπακούσεται αὐτοῦ ἐξ οὐρανοῦ ἁγίου αὐτοῦ ἐν δυναστείαις ἡ σωτηρία τῆς δεξιᾶς αὐτοῦ

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

7 οὗτοι ἐν ἅρμασιν καὶ οὗτοι ἐν ἵπποις ἡμεῖς δὲ ἐν ὀνόματι κυρίου θεοῦ ἡμῶν μεγαλυνθησόμεθα

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we will make mention of the name of Jehovah our God.

8 αὐτοὶ συνεποδίσθησαν καὶ ἔπεσαν ἡμεῖς δὲ ἀνέστημεν καὶ ἀνωρθώθημεν

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

9 κύριε σῶσον τὸν βασιλέα σου καὶ ἐπάκουσον ἡμῶν ἐν ᾗ ἂν ἡμέρᾳ ἐπικαλεσώμεθά σε

Save, Jehovah! Let the King answer us when we call.
