Psalm 20:1-9

 Psalm 20:1-9


20:1 (0) For the leader. A psalm of David:

2 (1) May Adonai answer you in times of distress,

may the name of the God of Ya‘akov protect you.

3 (2) May he send you help from the sanctuary

and give you support from Tziyon.

4 (3) May he be reminded by all your grain offerings

and accept the fat of your burnt offerings. (Selah)

5 (4) May he grant you your heart’s desire

and bring all your plans to success.

6 (5) Then we will shout for joy at your victory

and fly our flags in the name of our God.

May Adonai fulfill all your requests.

7 (6) Now I know that Adonai

gives victory to his anointed one —

he will answer him from his holy heaven

with mighty victories by his right hand.

8 (7) Some trust in chariots and some in horses,

but we praise the name of Adonai our God.

9 (8) They will crumple and fall,

but we will arise and stand erect. (Complete Jewish Bible)
