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;

In finem. Psalmus David. [Exaudiat te Dominus in die tribulationis; protegat te nomen Dei Jacob.

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

Mittat tibi auxilium de sancto, et de Sion tueatur te.

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

Memor sit omnis sacrificii tui, et holocaustum tuum pingue fiat.

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

Tribuat tibi secundum cor tuum, et omne consilium tuum confirmet.

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

Lætabimur in salutari tuo; et in nomine Dei nostri magnificabimur.

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.

Impleat Dominus omnes petitiones tuas; nunc cognovi quoniam salvum fecit Dominus christum suum. Exaudiet illum de cælo sancto suo, in potentatibus salus dexteræ ejus.

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

Hi in curribus, et hi in equis; nos autem in nomine Domini Dei nostri invocabimus.

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

Ipsi obligati sunt, et ceciderunt; nos autem surreximus, et erecti sumus.

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

Domine, salvum fac regem, et exaudi nos in die qua invocaverimus te.]
