PSALM 20
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1 JEHOVAH hear thee in the day
when trouble he doth send:
And let the name of Jacob's God
thee from all ill defend.
2O let him help send from above,
out of his sanctuary:
From Sion, his own holy hill,
let him give strength to thee.
3Let him remember all thy gifts,
accept thy sacrifice:
4Grant thee thine heart's wish, and fulfil
thy thoughts and counsel wise.
5In thy salvation we will joy;
in our God's name we will
Display our banners: and the Lord
thy prayers all fulfil.
6Now know I God his king doth save:
he from his holy heav'n
Will hear him, with the saving strength
by his own right hand giv'n.
7In chariots some put confidence,
some horses trust upon:
But we remember will the name
of our Lord God alone.
8We rise, and upright stand, when they
are bowed down, and fall.
9Deliver, Lord; and let the King
us hear, when we do call.

Psalms 20
20
To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David.
1 Jehovah doth answer thee, In a day of adversity, The name of the God of Jacob doth set thee on high,
2He doth send thy help from the sanctuary, And from Zion doth support thee,
3He doth remember all thy presents, And thy burnt-offering doth reduce to ashes. Selah.
4He doth give to thee according to thy heart, And all thy counsel doth fulfil.
5We sing of thy salvation, And in the name of our God set up a banner. Jehovah doth fulfil all thy requests.
6Now I have known That Jehovah hath saved His anointed, He answereth him from His holy heavens, With the saving might of His right hand.
7Some of chariots, and some of horses, And we of the name of Jehovah our God Make mention.
8They — they have bowed and have fallen, And we have risen and station ourselves upright.
9O Jehovah, save the king, He doth answer us in the day we call!
