For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.
1
May YHVH answer you in the day of trouble.
May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high,
2
send you help from the sanctuary,
grant you support from Zion,
3
remember all your offerings,
and accept your burned sacrifice. Selah.
4
May he grant you your heart’s desire,
and fulfill all your counsel.
5
We will triumph in your salvation.
In the name of our God, we will set up our banners.
May YHVH grant all your requests.
6
Now I know that YHVH saves his anointed.
He will answer him from his holy heaven,
with the saving strength of his right hand.
7
Some trust in chariots, and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of YHVH our God.
8
They are bowed down and fallen,
but we rise up, and stand upright.
9
Save, YHVH!
Let the King answer us when we call!
