祈求胜利

大卫的诗,交给乐长。

20 愿耶和华应允你患难时的呼求。
愿雅各的上帝保护你。
愿祂从圣所帮助你,
从锡安山扶持你。
愿祂喜悦你献的祭物,
悦纳你的燔祭。(细拉)
愿祂使你心愿得偿、
计划实现。
我们要因你得胜而高声欢唱,
高举耶和华的旌旗。
愿耶和华答应你一切的祈求。
现在我知道耶和华拯救祂膏立的王,
祂从圣天之上应允他,
用右手的大能拯救他。
有人靠战车,有人靠战马,
但我们靠的是我们的上帝耶和华的名。
他们都一败涂地,
我们却屹立不倒。
耶和华啊,求你拯救你立的王。
我们呼求的时候,
求你垂听。

祈耶和华援其受膏者使之得胜

20 大卫的诗,交于伶长。

愿耶和华在你遭难的日子应允你,愿名为雅各神的高举你。
愿他从圣所救助你,从锡安坚固你;
记念你的一切供献,悦纳你的燔祭;(细拉)
将你心所愿的赐给你,成就你的一切筹算。
我们要因你的救恩夸胜,要奉我们神的名竖立旌旗。愿耶和华成就你一切所求的!
现在我知道耶和华救护他的受膏者,必从他的圣天上应允他,用右手的能力救护他。
有人靠车,有人靠马,但我们要提到耶和华我们神的名。
他们都屈身仆倒,我们却起来,立得正直。
求耶和华施行拯救,我们呼求的时候,愿王应允我们!

Psalm 20

For the choir director: A psalm of David.

In times of trouble, may the Lord answer your cry.
    May the name of the God of Jacob keep you safe from all harm.
May he send you help from his sanctuary
    and strengthen you from Jerusalem.[a]
May he remember all your gifts
    and look favorably on your burnt offerings. Interlude

May he grant your heart’s desires
    and make all your plans succeed.
May we shout for joy when we hear of your victory
    and raise a victory banner in the name of our God.
May the Lord answer all your prayers.

Now I know that the Lord rescues his anointed king.
    He will answer him from his holy heaven
    and rescue him by his great power.
Some nations boast of their chariots and horses,
    but we boast in the name of the Lord our God.
Those nations will fall down and collapse,
    but we will rise up and stand firm.

Give victory to our king, O Lord!
    Answer our cry for help.
