Psalm 20

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

[20:1] May Yahweh answer you in the day of trouble. May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high, [20:2] send you help from the sanctuary, grant you support from Zion, [20:3] remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice. Selah. [20:4] May He grant you your heart's desire, and fulfill all your counsel. [20:5] We will triumph in your salvation. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May Yahweh grant all your requests. [20:6] Now I know that Yahweh saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength of his right hand. [20:7] Some trust in chariots, and some in horses, but we trust the name of Yahweh our God. [20:8] They are bowed down and fallen, but we rise up, and stand upright. [20:9] Save, Yahweh! Let the King answer us when we call!
