Psalms 20

Thomson(i) 1 For the conclusion. A Psalm by David. The Lord hearken to thee in a day of distress! The name of the God of Jacob defend thee; 2 May he send thee help from the Sanctuary: And assist thee out of Sion. 3 May he remember all thy sacrifice; And make thy whole burnt offerings fat. 4 May he grant thee thy hearts desire: And fulfil all thy counsel. 5 We will rejoice in thy salvation, and triumph in the name of our God. May the Lord fulfil all thy petitions! 6 Now I know that the Lord hath saved his anointed. From his holy heaven he will hearken to him. The salvation of his right hand is with power. 7 Some boast of chariots and some of horses; but by the name of the Lord our God we shall be magnified. 8 They were entangled and fell; but we arose and were kept upright. 9 O Lord, save the king, and hearken to us, when we invoke thee.
