Psalm 20

English Standard Version



1 To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble! May the name of the God of Jacob protect you! (Ge 35:3; Ps 59:1; Ps 69:29; Pr 18:10) 2 May he send you help from the sanctuary and give you support from Zion! (2Ch 20:8; Ps 73:17; Ps 128:5) 3 May he remember all your offerings and regard with favor your burnt sacrifices! (Ac 10:4) 4 May he grant you your heart’s desire and fulfill all your plans! (Ps 21:2) 5 May we shout for joy over your salvation, and in the name of our God set up our banners! May the Lord fulfill all your petitions! (Ps 9:14; Ps 60:4; So 6:4; So 6:10) 6 Now I know that the Lord saves his anointed; he will answer him from his holy heaven with the saving might of his right hand. (Ps 28:8) 7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. (1Sa 17:45; 2Ch 32:8; Pr 21:31; Isa 31:1; Isa 36:9) 8 They collapse and fall, but we rise and stand upright. 9 O Lord, save the king! May he answer us when we call. (Ps 48:2)

Psalm 20

Neue evangelistische Übersetzung



1 Dem Chorleiter. Ein Psalmlied von David. 2 Jahwe gebe dir Antwort am Tag der Not. / Der Name des Gottes Jakobs schütze dich. 3 Er sende dir Hilfe vom Heiligtum her, / unterstütze dich von Zion aus. 4 Er möge an deine Speisopfer denken, / nehme dein Brandopfer gnädig an. ♪ 5 Er gebe dir, was dein Herz begehrt, / er lasse deine Pläne gelingen. 6 Dann wollen wir jubeln über dein Heil, / im Namen unseres Gottes die Fahne erheben. / Jahwe erfülle dir all deine Bitten! 7 Jetzt weiß ich, dass Jahwe seinem Gesalbten hilft. / Aus seinem heiligen Himmel erhört er ihn / durch die Machttaten seiner rettenden Hand. 8 Die einen denken an Wagen, andere an Pferde; / wir aber denken an Jahwe, an den Namen von unserem Gott. 9 Sie krümmen sich und fallen, / wir aber stehen und halten stand. 10 Hilf uns, Jahwe, du unser König! / Erhöre unser Rufen noch am selben Tag!
