Psalm 20

New Revised Standard NRS

1 The Lord answer you in the day of trouble! The name of the God of Jacob protect you!

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

3 May he remember all your offerings, and regard with favor your burnt sacrifices. (Selah)

4 May he grant you your heart's desire, and fulfill all your plans.

5 May we shout for joy over your victory, and in the name of our God set up our banners. May the Lord fulfill all your petitions.

6 Now I know that the Lord will help his anointed; he will answer him from his holy heaven with mighty victories by his right hand.

7 Some take pride in chariots, and some in horses, but our pride is in the name of the Lord our God.

8 They will collapse and fall, but we shall rise and stand upright.

9 Give victory to the king, O Lord; answer us when we call.

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

3 Exclaim over your offerings, Celebrate your sacrifices,

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

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

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

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

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

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