Psalm 20
1May Jehovah hear thee in the day of trouble!
2May he send help to thee from the sanctuary! And out of Zion sustain thee!
3May he be mindful of all thy offerings! And thy holocaust may he make flit! Selah.
4May he give to thee according to thy heart! And all thy counsel may he fulfill!
5That we may exult in thy salvation, And in the name of our God erect a banner, When Jehovah shall fulfill all thy petitions.
6Now I have known that Jehovah hath saved his anointed; He will hear him from the heavens of his sanctuary, In the mightiness of the salvation of his right hand.
7Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; But the name of Jehovah our God we will remember.
8They are bowed down and fallen; But we are risen up and stand erect.
9O Jehovah! do thou save; Let the King hear us in the day that we call upon him.
