Psalm 20
King James Version
20 The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;
2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;
3 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah.
4 Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.
5 We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the Lord fulfil all thy petitions.
6 Now know I that the Lord saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord our God.
8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.
9 Save, Lord: let the king hear us when we call.

Oración en que se pide la victoria
Al músico principal. Salmo de David.
20 Que el Señor te oiga en momentos de angustia;
que te defienda el Nombre, el Dios de Jacob.
2 Que desde su templo te envíe su ayuda;
que desde Sión te brinde su apoyo.
3 Que tome en cuenta tus ofrendas
Y acepte con agrado tus holocaustos.
4 Que responda a los deseos de tu corazón
y te conceda todas tus peticiones.
5 ¡Nos llenará de gozo el verte victorioso,
y en el nombre del Dios nuestro alzaremos las banderas!
¡Que el Señor responda a todas tus plegarias!
6 Ahora sé que el Señor salvará a su ungido,
que lo escuchará desde su santo cielo,
y que con su diestra poderosa le dará la victoria.
7 Algunos confían en sus carros de guerra;
otros confían en su caballería,
Pero nosotros confiamos en el Nombre,
¡confiamos en el Señor, nuestro Dios!
8 Unos y otros flaquean, y caen por tierra,
pero nosotros nos mantenemos erguidos y en pie.
9 Señor, ¡concede al rey la victoria!
¡Respóndenos cuando te invoquemos!
Psalm 20
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
20 Unto the end. A psalm for David.
2 In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.
3 Thou hast given him his heart's desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.
4 For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.
5 He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.
6 His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.
7 For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.
8 For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
9 Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that hate thee.
10 Thou shalt make them as an oven of fire, in the time of thy anger: the Lord shall trouble them in his wrath, and fire shall devour them.
11 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth: and their seed from among the children of men.
12 For they have intended evils against thee: they have devised counsels which they have not been able to establish.
13 For thou shalt make them turn their back: in thy remnants thou shalt prepare their face.
14 Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy own strength: we will sing and praise thy power.
