[1] May the LORD answer you when you are in trouble. May the God of Jacob keep you safe. [2] May he send you help from the sacred tent. May he give you aid from Zion. [3] May he remember all your sacrifices. May he accept your burnt offerings. [4] May he give you what your heart wishes for. May he make all your plans succeed. [5] May we shout for joy over your victory. May we lift up our flags in the name of our God. May the LORD give you everything you ask for. [6] Now I know that the LORD gives victory to his anointed king. He answers him from his sacred home in heaven. The power of God’s right hand gives victory to the king. [7] Some trust in chariots. Some trust in horses. But we trust in the LORD our God. [8] They are brought to their knees and fall down. But we get up and stand firm. [9] LORD, give victory to the king! Answer us when we call out to you!
