Psalms 20

1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The Lord heare thee in the day of trouble: the name of ye God of Iaakob defend thee:

May Adonai answer you in the day of trouble. May the name of the God of Jacob [Supplanter] set you up on high,

2 Send thee helpe from the Sanctuarie, and strengthen thee out of Zion.

send you help from the sanctuary, grant you support from Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking],

3 Let him remember all thine offerings, and turne thy burnt offerings into asshes. (Selah)

remember all your offerings, and accept your burned sacrifice. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.

4 And graunt thee according to thine heart, and fulfill all thy purpose:

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

5 That we may reioyce in thy saluation, and set vp the banner in the Name of our God, when the Lord shall performe all thy petitions.

We will triumph in your yishu'ah ·salvation·. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May Adonai grant all your requests.

6 Now know I that the Lord will helpe his anointed, and will heare him from his Sanctuarie, by the mightie helpe of his right hand.

Now I know that Adonai saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the yesha' ·saving· strength of his right hand.

7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the Name of ye Lord our God.

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we trust the name of Yahweh Eloheikhem [Yahweh our God].

8 They are brought downe and fallen, but we are risen, and stand vpright.

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

9 Saue Lord: let the King heare vs in the day that we call.

Save, Adonai! Let the King answer us when we call!
