Psalms 20 (NIV11)
undefined For the director of music. A psalm of David. 1 May the LORD answer you when you are in distress;may the name of the God of Jacob protect you. 2 May he send you help from the sanctuaryand grant you support from Zion. 3 May he remember all your sacrificesand accept your burnt offerings. 4 May he give you the desire of your heartand make all your plans succeed. 5 May we shout for joy over your victoryand lift up our banners in the name of our God. May the LORD grant all your requests. 6 Now this I know:The LORD gives victory to his anointed.He answers him from his heavenly sanctuarywith the victorious power of his right hand. 7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses,but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. 8 They are brought to their knees and fall,but we rise up and stand firm. 9 LORD, give victory to the king!Answer us when we call!
