Psalm 20

May Jehovah answer your prayers in times of trouble;
May the name of the god of Jacob protect you;
From the Sanctum of the Temple may he send you aid,
From the Mount of Zion may he lend you support.
May he remember all your sacrifices of grain,
And look with favor upon your burnt offerings.

May he grant you all that your heart desires,
And bring the fulfillment of all your plans.
We will then sing with joy for your success
And fly a flag in honor of our god.
May Jehovah give to you all that you ask!

Now I know well that Jehovah will save
And make victorious his anointed king.
From holy Heaven he will answer him
And, with deeds of divine might, rescue him.
Some put their trust in battle chariots,
Some in horses of war, but we put our trust
In the power of Jehovah, our god.
They will be overcome and fall in defeat,
But we will rise up and stand straight and tall.

O Jehovah, grant victory to our king! 
May you answer us when we call upon you!
