PSALMS 20

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

1The LORD 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;

3Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah

4Grant thee thy heart’s desire, and fulfill all thy counsel.

5We will triumph in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfill all thy petitions.

6Now know I that the LORD saveth his anointed; he wilt answer him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

7Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will make mention of the name of the LORD our God.

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

9Save, LORD: let the King answer us when we call.
