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 of your sacrifices. May he accept your burnt offerings. Selah
4 May he give you what your heart longs for. May he make all of your plans succeed.
5 We will shout with joy when you win the battle. We will 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 saves his anointed king. He answers him from his holy heaven. The power of God's right hand saves 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.
