Psalmen 20
Petrus Canisius Bible, 1939 (De Heilige Schrift)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1Voor muziekbegeleiding. Een psalm van David. Moge Jahweh op de dag van nood u verhoren, De naam van Jakobs God u beschermen,
1Unto the end. A psalm for David.
2Uit het heiligdom u hulp verlenen, En uit Sion u bijstaan.
2In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.
3Hij gedenke al uw offergaven, En neme genadig uw brandoffers aan;
3Thou hast given him his heart’s desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.
4Hij schenke u wat uw hart maar begeert, En doe al uw plannen gelukken.
4For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.
5Dan zullen wij om uw zegepraal juichen, In de Naam van onzen God de feestbanier heffen!
5He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.
6Nu reeds ben ik er zeker van, Dat Jahweh zijn Gezalfde de zegepraal schenkt, En Hem uit zijn heilige hemel verhoort Door de reddende kracht van zijn rechterhand.
6His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.
7Anderen gaan trots op wagens en paarden, Wij op de Naam van Jahweh, onzen God;
7For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.
8Maar zìj storten neer, en blijven liggen, Wij rijzen op en staan vast!
8For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
9Jahweh, geef den Koning de zege, En verhoor nog heden ons smeekgebed!
9Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that hate thee.
