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