Psalms 20

1 To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. Yahweh answer thee, in the day of distress, The Name of the God of Jacob give thee safety;

For the end, a Psalm of David. The Lord hear you in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend you.

2 Send thy help out of the sanctuary, and, out of Zion, sustain thee;

Send you help from the sanctuary, and aid you out of Sion.

3 Remember every present of thine, and, thine ascending-sacrifice, esteem. (Selah)

Remember all your sacrifice, and enrich your whole burnt offering. (Pause)

4 Give thee according to thy heart, and, all thy purposes, fulfil.

Grant you according to your heart, and fulfill all your desire.

5 We will shout aloud in thy salvation, and, in the Name of our God, shall we become great, Yahweh fulfil all thy petitions.

We will exult in your salvation, and in the name of our God shall we be magnified: the Lord fulfil all your petitions.

6 Now, do I know that Yahweh, hath saved, his Anointed One, —He answereth him out of his holy heavens, by the mighty saving deeds of his own right hand.

Now I know that the Lord has saved his Christ: he shall hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is mighty.

7 These, by chariots, and, those, by horses, but, we, by the Name of Yahweh our God, will prevail.

Some [glory] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will glory in the name of the Lord our God.

8 They, have bowed down and fallen, but, we, have arisen, and stand upright.

They are overthrown and fallen: but we are risen, and have been set upright.

9 Yahweh, hath saved the king. Answer us, then, on the day when we call.

O Lord, save the king: and hear us in whatever day we call upon you.
