Psalms 20

1 For the leader. A psalm of David. The Lord answer you in the day of distress, the name of the Jacob’s God protect you,

ねがはくはヱホバなやみの日になんぢにこたヘヤユブのかみの名なんぢを高にあげ

2 sending you help from the temple, out of Zion supporting you.

聖所より援助をなんぢにおくりシオンより能力をなんぢにあたへ

3 All your meal-offerings may he remember, your burnt-offerings look on with favour. (Selah)

汝のもろもろの献物をみこころにとめ なんぢの燔祭をうけたまはんことを (セラ)

4 May he grant you your heart’s desire, and bring all your plans to pass.

ねがはくはなんちがこころの願望をゆるし なんぢの謀略をことごとく遂しめたまはんことを

5 We will shout then for joy at your victory, and rejoice in the name of our God. May the Lord grant your every request.

我儕なんぢの救によりて歓びうたひ われらの神の名によりて旗をたてん ねがはくはヱホバ汝のもろもろの求をとげしめたまはんことを

6 Now I am sure that the Lord will help his anointed. From his temple in heaven he will answer by his mighty triumphant right hand.

われ今ヱホバその受膏者をすくひたまふを知る ヱホバそのきよき天より右手なるすくひの力にてかれに應へたまはん

7 Some in chariots are strong, some in horses; but our strength is the Lord our God.

あるひは車をたのみあるひは馬をたのみとする者あり されどわれらはわが神ヱホバの名をとなへん

8 They will totter and fall, while we rise and stand firm.

かれらは屈みまた仆るわれらは起てかたくたてり

9 Give victory, Lord, to the king, and answer us when we call.

ヱホバよ王をすくひたまへ われらがよぶとき應へたまへ
