The Book of Psalms 20

To the music director. psalm David.

20 I desire that Yahweh will answer you when you call out to him when you are in a crisis!

I desire that Yahweh, the God whom our ancestor Jacob worshiped will protect you from your enemies.

2 I desire that he may come from his sacred temple and help you,

and aid you from where he lives on Mount Zion.

3 I desire that he may accept all your grain offerings

and accept all your other offerings that you give him to be burned on the altar. (Think about that!)

4 I want him to give you what you desire,

and I want him to allow you to be able to accomplish everything that you have planned to do.

5 When you defeat your enemies, we will shout joyfully.

We will lift up a banner proclaiming that it is Yahweh our God who helps us.

I desire Yahweh to do everything that you have requested him to do.

6 I know now that Yahweh rescues the one whom he has chosen to be king.

From his holy place in heaven he will answer him,

and he will save him by his great power.

7 Some kings trust that because they have chariots they will be able to defeat their enemies,

and some trust that their horses will enable them to defeat their enemies,

but we will trust in the power of Yahweh our God.

8 Some will stumble and fall down,

but we will be strong and not be moved.

9 Yahweh, enable your king to defeat our enemies!

We desire that the king answer us when we cry out for help.
