Psalm 20

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.

cb(20,1); 20:1 May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble.

May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high,

cb(20,2); 20:2 send you help from the sanctuary,

grant you support from Zion,

cb(20,3); 20:3 remember all your offerings,

and accept your burnt sacrifice.

Selah.

cb(20,4); 20:4 May He grant you your heart’s desire,

and fulfill all your counsel.

cb(20,5); 20:5 We will triumph in your salvation.

In the name of our God, we will set up our banners.

May the LORD grant all your requests.

cb(20,6); 20:6 Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed.

He will answer him from his holy heaven,

with the saving strength of his right hand.

cb(20,7); 20:7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses,

but we trust the name of the LORD our God.

cb(20,8); 20:8 They are bowed down and fallen,

but we rise up, and stand upright.

cb(20,9); 20:9 Save, LORD!

Let the King answer us when we call!
