1 May the Lord give ear to you in the day of trouble; may you be placed on high by the name of the God of Jacob;

1Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble; The name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high;

2Send thee help from the sanctuary, And strengthen thee out of Zion;

2May he send you help from the holy place, and give you strength from Zion;

2Send thee help from the sanctuary, And strengthen thee out of Zion;

3Remember all thy offerings, And accept thy burnt-sacrifice; [Selah

3May he keep all your offerings in mind, and be pleased with the fat of your burned offerings; (Selah.)

3Remember all thy offerings, And accept thy burnt-sacrifice; [Selah

4Grant thee thy heart’s desire, And fulfil all thy counsel.

4May he give you your heart's desire, and put all your purposes into effect.

4Grant thee thy heart’s desire, And fulfil all thy counsel.

5We will triumph in thy salvation, And in the name of our God we will set up our banners: Jehovah fulfil all thy petitions.

5We will be glad in your salvation, and in the name of our God we will put up our flags: may the Lord give you all your requests.

7Some trustin chariots, and some in horses; But we will make mention of the name of Jehovah our God.

7Some put their faith in carriages and some in horses; but we will be strong in the name of the Lord our God.

7Some trustin chariots, and some in horses; But we will make mention of the name of Jehovah our God.

8They are bowed down and fallen; But we are risen, and stand upright.

8They are bent down and made low; but we have been lifted up.

8They are bowed down and fallen; But we are risen, and stand upright.

9Save, Jehovah: Let the King answer us when we call.

9Come to our help, Lord: let the king give ear to our cry.

9Save, Jehovah: Let the King answer us when we call.
