1 For the choir director. A Davidic psalm. May the LORD answer you in a day of trouble; may the name of Jacob's God protect you.
2 May He send you help from the sanctuary and sustain you from Zion.
3 May He remember all your offerings and accept your burnt offering. Selah
4 May He give you what your heart desires and fulfill your whole purpose.
5 Let us shout for joy at your victory and lift the banner in the name of our God. May the LORD fulfill all your requests.
6 Now I know that the LORD gives victory to His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven with mighty victories from His right hand.
7 Some take pride in a chariot, and others in horses, but we take pride in the name of the LORD our God.
8 They collapse and fall, but we rise and stand firm.
9 LORD, give victory to the king! May He answer us on the day that we call.
