Psalms

¹ For the choir director. A psalm of David. May the LORD answer you in a day of trouble; may the name of Jacob’s God protect you.

² May he send you help from the sanctuary and sustain you from Zion.

³ May he remember all your offerings and accept your burnt offering. Selah

⁴ May he give you what your heart desires and fulfill your whole purpose.

⁵ Let us shout for joy at your victory and lift the banner in the name of our God. May the LORD fulfill all your requests.

⁶ Now I know that the LORD gives victory to his anointed; he will answer him from his holy heaven with mighty victories from his right hand.

⁷ Some take pride in chariots, and others in horses, but we take pride in the name of the LORD our God.

⁸ They collapse and fall, but we rise and stand firm.

⁹ LORD, give victory to the king! May he answer us on the day that we call.
