Psalms 20

20
Psalm 20
This is a psalm that David wrote for the music leader.
God's people can trust him to help them #20:1 Soldiers may have sung this psalm when they left Jerusalem to fight against their enemies.
1May the Lord answer you
when you are in trouble and you call to him for help.
May Israel's great God keep you safe.
2He will send help to you from his holy place,
from his temple in Zion.
3He will remember the gifts that you have offered to him.
He will accept your burnt offerings.
4May God give to you
all the things that you really want.
He will help you to do everything that you want to do.
5Then we will be happy and we will shout aloud
when you win against your enemies.
We will wave our flags to praise our God.
Yes, I pray that the Lord will do for you
everything that you ask him to do.
6Now I know that the Lord will rescue
the king that he has chosen.
God will agree to help him from his holy place in heaven.
God will use his great power to make his king safe.
7Some people hope that their chariots will keep them safe.
Other people trust their horses to save them.
But we will trust in the name of the Lord our God.
8Those people will fall down,
and they will not get up again.
But we will get up and stand again,
and we will be strong.
9 Lord, help the king to win against his enemies!
Please answer us when we ask you for help.
