| 1 | For the director of music. A psalm of David. May the LORD answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you. | |
| 2 | May he send you help from the sanctuary and grant you support from Zion. | |
| 3 | May he remember all your sacrifices and accept your burnt offerings. Selah | |
| 4 | May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed. | |
| 5 | We will shout for joy when you are victorious and will lift up our banners in the name of our God. May the LORD grant all your requests. | |
| 6 | Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed; he answers him from his holy heaven with the saving power of his right hand. | |
| 7 | Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. | |
| 8 | They are brought to their knees and fall, but we rise up and stand firm. | |
| 9 | O LORD, save the king! Answer us when we call! | |
