Psalms 20

1 May the LORD answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

1 God answer you on the day you crash, The name God-of-Jacob put you out of harm's reach,

2 May he send you help from the sanctuary and grant you support from Zion.

2 Send reinforcements from Holy Hill, Dispatch from Zion fresh supplies,

3 May he remember all your sacrifices and accept your burnt offerings.

3 Exclaim over your offerings, Celebrate your sacrifices,

4 May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.

4 Give you what your heart desires, Accomplish your plans.

5 May we shout for joy over your victory and lift up our banners in the name of our God. May the LORD grant all your requests.

5 When you win, we plan to raise the roof and lead the parade with our banners. May all your wishes come true!

6 Now this I know: The LORD gives victory to his anointed. He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary with the victorious power of his right hand.

6 That clinches it - help's coming, an answer's on the way, everything's going to work out.

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

7 See those people polishing their chariots, and those others grooming their horses? But we're making garlands for God our God.

8 They are brought to their knees and fall, but we rise up and stand firm.

8 The chariots will rust, those horses pull up lame - and we'll be on our feet, standing tall.

9 LORD, give victory to the king! Answer us when we call!

9 Make the king a winner, God; the day we call, give us your answer.
