1 May the Lord answer you when you are in distress;may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
2 May he send you help from the sanctuaryand grant you support from Zion.
3 May he remember all your sacrificesand accept your burnt offerings.
4 May he give you the desire of your heartand make all your plans succeed.
5 May we shout for joy over your victoryand lift up our banners in the name of our God.May the Lord grant all your requests.
6 Now this I know:the Lord gives victory to his anointed.He answers him from his heavenly sanctuarywith the victorious power of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses,but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
8 They are brought to their knees and fall,but we rise up and stand firm.
9 Lord, give victory to the king!Answer us when we call!
