Psalms 20

KING JAMES BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;	1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David.
2 Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;	2 In your virtue, Lord, the king will rejoice, and over your salvation, he will exult exceedingly.
3 Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah.	3 You have granted him the desire of his heart, and you have not cheated him of the wish of his lips.
4 Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.	4 For you have gone ahead of him with blessings of sweetness. You have placed a crown of precious stones on his head.
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.	5 He petitioned you for life, and you have granted him length of days, in the present time, and forever and ever.
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.	6 Great is his glory in your salvation. Glory and great adornment, you will lay upon him.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.	7 For you will give him as a blessing forever and ever. You will make him rejoice with gladness in your presence.
8 They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.	8 Because the king hopes in the Lord, and in the mercy of the Most High, he will not be disturbed.
9 Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.	9 May your hand be found by all your enemies. May your right hand discover all those who hate you.
	10 You will make them like an oven of fire, in the time of your presence. The Lord will stir them up with his wrath, and fire will devour them.
	11 You will destroy their fruit from the earth and their offspring from the sons of men.
	12 For they have turned evils upon you; they have devised plans, which they have not been able to accomplish.
	13 For you will make them turn their back; with your remnants, you will prepare their countenance.
	14 Be exalted, Lord, by your own power. We will play music and sing psalms to your virtues.
