1 May the Lord answer you in times of trouble. May the God of Jacob protect you.
2 May he send you help from his Temple and support you from Mount Zion.
3 May he remember all your offerings and accept all your sacrifices. Selah
4 May he give you what you want and make all your plans succeed,
5 and we will shout for joy when you succeed, and we will raise a flag in the name of our God. May the Lord give you all that you ask for.
6 Now I know the Lord helps his appointed king. He answers him from his holy heaven and saves him with his strong right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots, others in horses, but we trust the Lord our God.
8 They are overwhelmed and defeated, but we march forward and win.
9 Lord, save the king! Answer us when we call for help. For the director of music. A psalm of David.
