Psalm 20

A Prayer for Victory

1 May the Lord answer you when you are in trouble!

May the God of Jacob protect you!

2 May he send you help from his Temple

and give you aid from Mount Zion.

3 May he accept all your offerings

and be pleased with all your sacrifices.

4 May he give you what you desire

and make all your plans succeed.

5 Then we will shout for joy over your victory

and celebrate your triumph by praising our God.

May the Lord answer all your requests.

6 Now I know that the Lord gives victory to his chosen king;

he answers him from his holy heaven

and by his power gives him great victories.

7 Some trust in their war chariots

and others in their horses,

but we trust in the power of the Lord our God.

8 Such people will stumble and fall,

but we will rise and stand firm.

9 Give victory to the king, O Lord;

answerus when we call.
