Psalms 20 (MSG) Message Bible

1 A David psalm. GOD answer you on the day you crash, The name God-of-Jacob put you out of harm's reach,
2 Send reinforcements from Holy Hill, Dispatch from Zion fresh supplies,
3 Exclaim over your offerings, Celebrate your sacrifices,
4 Give you what your heart desires, Accomplish your plans.
5 When you win, we plan to raise the roof and lead the parade with our banners. May all your wishes come true!
6 That clinches it--help's coming, an answer's on the way, everything's going to work out.
7 See those people polishing their chariots, and those others grooming their horses? But we're making garlands for GOD our God.
8 The chariots will rust, those horses pull up lame-- and we'll be on our feet, standing tall.
9 Make the king a winner, GOD; the day we call, give us your answer.
