1Unto the end. A psalm for David.
1(20-1) For the Leader. A Psalm of David. (20-2) The LORD answer thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high;
2In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.
2(20-3) Send forth thy help from the sanctuary, and support thee out of Zion;
3Thou hast given him his heart’s desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.
3(20-4) Receive the memorial of all thy meal-offerings, and accept the fat of thy burnt-sacrifice; Selah
4For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.
4(20-5) Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
5He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.
5(20-6) We will shout for joy in thy victory, and in the name of our God we will set up our standards; the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.
6His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.
6(20-7) Now know I that the LORD saveth His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven with the mighty acts of His saving right hand.
7For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.
7(20-8) Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will make mention of the name of the LORD our God.
8For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
8(20-9) They are bowed down and fallen; but we are risen, and stand upright.
9Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that hate thee.
9(20-10) Save, LORD; let the King answer us in the day that we call.
10Thou shalt make them as an oven of fire, in the time of thy anger: the Lord shall trouble them in his wrath, and fire shall devour them.
