Psalm 20
For the choir director; a psalm by David. 
 1 The Lord will answer you in times of trouble. 
The name of the God of Jacob will protect you. 
 2 He will send you help from his holy place 
and support you from Zion. 
 3 He will remember all your grain offerings 
and look with favor on your burnt offerings. 
Selah
  4 He will give you your heart’s desire 
and carry out all your plans. 
 5 We will joyfully sing about your victory. 
We will wave our flags in the name of our God. 
The Lord will fulfill all your requests. 
 6 Now I know that the Lord will give victory to his anointed king. 
He will answer him from his holy heaven 
with mighty deeds of his powerful hand. 
 7 Some ⌞rely⌟ on chariots and others on horses, 
but we will boast in the name of the Lord our God. 
 8 They will sink to their knees and fall, 
but we will rise and stand firm. 
 9 Give victory to the king, O Lord. 
Answer us when we call.
