# Chapter 20
|
||
1 In times of trouble, may the Lord answer your cry.
|
||
May the name of the God of Jacob keep you safe from all harm.
|
||
2 May he send you help from his sanctuary
|
||
and strengthen you from Jerusalem.
|
||
3 May he remember all your gifts
|
||
and look favorably on your burnt offerings. Interlude
|
||
4 May he grant your heart’s desires
|
||
and make all your plans succeed.
|
||
5 May we shout for joy when we hear of your victory
|
||
and raise a victory banner in the name of our God.
|
||
May the Lord answer all your prayers.
|
||
6 Now I know that the Lord rescues his anointed king.
|
||
He will answer him from his holy heaven
|
||
and rescue him by his great power.
|
||
7 Some nations boast of their chariots and horses,
|
||
but we boast in the name of the Lord our God.
|
||
8 Those nations will fall down and collapse,
|
||
but we will rise up and stand firm.
|
||
9 Give victory to our king, O Lord!
|
||
Answer our cry for help. |
