BSB PSA Chapter 20

The Day of Trouble

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

20 May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble;

may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

2 May He send you help from the sanctuary

and sustain you from Zion.

3 May He remember all your gifts

and look favorably on your burnt offerings.

Selah

4 May He give you the desires of your heart

and make all your plans succeed.

5 May we shout for joy at your victory

and raise a banner in the name of our God.

May the LORD grant all your petitions.

6 Now I know that the LORD saves His anointed;

He answers him from His holy heaven

with the saving power of His right hand.

7 Some trust in chariots and others in horses,

but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

8 They collapse and fall,

but we rise up and stand firm.

9 O LORD, save [fn] the king.

Answer us on the day we call.
