Chapter 20

Confidence in God's succor


To the chief musician, a psalm of David

1

The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;

2

Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;

3

Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice. Selah.

4

Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfill all thy counsel.

5

We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners; the Lord fulfill all thy petitions.

6

Now know I that the Lord saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

7

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will remember the name of the Lord, our God.

8

They are brought down and fallen; but we are risen and stand upright.

9

Save, Lord; let the king hear us when we call.
