1
For the music director, a psalm of David. May the Lord answer you when you are in trouble; may the God of Jacob make you secure.
2
May he send you help from his temple; from Zion may he give you support.
3
May he take notice of all your offerings; may he accept your burnt sacrifice. (Selah)
4
May he grant your heart’s desire; may he bring all your plans to pass.
5
Then we will shout for joy over your victory; we will rejoice in the name of our God. May the Lord grant all your requests.
6
Now I am sure that the Lord will deliver his chosen king; he will intervene for him from his holy, heavenly temple, and display his mighty ability to deliver.
7
Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we depend on the Lord our God.
8
They will fall down, but we will stand firm.
9
The Lord will deliver the king; he will answer us when we call to him for help!
