Psalm 20

Trust in the Name of the Lord Our God

1May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble![#Gen. 35:3]

May the name of the God of Jacob protect you!

2May he send you help from the sanctuary[#Ps. 73:17; 2 Chr. 20:8]

and give you support from Zion!

3May he remember all your offerings[#Acts 10:4]

and regard with favor your burnt sacrifices! Selah

4May he grant you your heart’s desire[#Ps. 21:2]

and fulfill all your plans!

5May we shout for joy over your salvation,[#Ps. 9:14]

and in the name of our God set up our banners!

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 the saving might of his right hand.

7Some trust in chariots and some in horses,[#Isa. 31:1; 36:9; #Prov. 21:31]

but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.

8They collapse and fall,

but we rise and stand upright.

9O Lord , save the king![#Ps. 48:2]

May he answer us when we call.
