Psalm 20

We Will Boast in the Name of Yahweh

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

May Yahweh answer you in the day of distress!
May the name of the God of Jacob set you securely on high!
2
May He send you help from the sanctuary
And uphold you from Zion!
3
May He remember all your meal offerings
And find your burnt offering acceptable! Selah.

4
May He grant you your heart’s desire
And fulfill all your counsel!
5
We will sing for joy over your salvation,
And in the name of our God we will set up our banners.
May Yahweh fulfill all your petitions.

6
Now I know that Yahweh saves His anointed;
He will answer him from His holy heaven
With the saving might of His right hand.
7
Some boast in chariots and some in horses,
But we will boast in the name of Yahweh, our God.
8
They have bowed down and fallen,
But we have risen and stood upright.
9
Save, O Yahweh;
May the King answer us in the day we call.
