Psalms 20

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

1Unto the end. A psalm for David.

1 Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble; the name of theGod of Jacob protect thee;

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

2In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.

2 May he send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;

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

3Thou hast given him his heart's desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.

3 Remember all thine oblations, and accept thy burnt-offering; Selah.

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

4For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.

4 Grant thee according to thy heart, and fulfil all thy counsels.

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

5He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.

5 We will triumph in thy salvation, and in the name of ourGod will we set up our banners. Jehovah fulfil all thy petitions!

6Now know I that Jehovah saveth his anointed; He will answer him from his holy heaven With the saving strength of his right hand.

6His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.

6 Now know I that Jehovah saveth his anointed; he answereth him from the heavens of his holiness, with the saving strength of his right hand.

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

7For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.

7 Some make mention of chariots, and some of horses, but we of the name of Jehovah ourGod.

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

8For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.

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

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

9Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that hate thee.

9 Save, Jehovah! Let the king answer us in the day we call.
