Psalms 20
Of David
1 May Yahweh answer you in time of trouble, may the name of the God of Jacob protect you!
2 May he send you help from the sanctuary, give you support from Zion,
3 remember all your oblations and find your holocaust acceptable; (pause)
4 may he grant you your heart’s desire, and crown all your plans with success;
5 may we shout with joy for your victory, and plant our banners in the name of our God! May Yahweh grant all your petitions!
6 Now I know that Yahweh saves his anointed, and answers him from his holy heaven with mighty victories from his own right hand.
7 Some boast of chariots, some of horses, but we boast about the name of Yahweh our God;
8 theirs to crumple and fall, but we shall stand, and stand firm!
9 Yahweh, save the king, answer us when we call.
