Psalm 20
20
Trust in the Name of the Lord Our God
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.
1May the Lord #[Gen. 35:3] answer you in the day of trouble!
May #Prov. 18:10 the name of the God of Jacob #Ps. 59:1; 69:29protect you!
2May he send you help from #Ps. 73:17; 2 Chr. 20:8 the sanctuary
and give you support from #Ps. 128:5Zion!
3May he #[Acts 10:4]remember all your offerings
and regard with favor your burnt sacrifices! Selah
4May he #Ps. 21:2grant you your heart’s desire
and fulfill all your plans!
5May we shout for joy over #Ps. 9:14 your salvation,
and in the name of our God set up our #Ps. 60:4; Song 6:4, 10banners!
May the Lord fulfill all your petitions!
6Now I know that the Lord saves his anointed;
he will answer him from his holy heaven
with #[Ps. 28:8]the saving might of his right hand.
7Some trust in #Isa. 31:1; 36:9 chariots and some in #Prov. 21:31 horses,
# [1 Sam. 17:45; 2 Chr. 32:8] but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
8They collapse and fall,
but we rise and stand upright.
9O Lord, save #Ps. 48:2the king!
May he answer us when we call.

Psalm 20
20
1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David.
2 In your virtue, Lord, the king will rejoice, and over your salvation, he will exult exceedingly.
3 You have granted him the desire of his heart, and you have not cheated him of the wish of his lips.
4 For you have gone ahead of him with blessings of sweetness. You have placed a crown of precious stones on his head.
5 He petitioned you for life, and you have granted him length of days, in the present time, and forever and ever.
6 Great is his glory in your salvation. Glory and great adornment, you will lay upon him.
7 For you will give him as a blessing forever and ever. You will make him rejoice with gladness in your presence.
8 Because the king hopes in the Lord, and in the mercy of the Most High, he will not be disturbed.
9 May your hand be found by all your enemies. May your right hand discover all those who hate you.
10 You will make them like an oven of fire, in the time of your presence. The Lord will stir them up with his wrath, and fire will devour them.
11 You will destroy their fruit from the earth and their offspring from the sons of men.
12 For they have turned evils upon you; they have devised plans, which they have not been able to accomplish.
13 For you will make them turn their back; with your remnants, you will prepare their countenance.
14 Be exalted, Lord, by your own power. We will play music and sing psalms to your virtues.
