1May •Yahweh answer you in a day of trouble;a

may the name of Jacob’s God protect you.b

2May He send you help from the sanctuary

and sustain you from •Zion.c

3May He remember all your offerings

and accept your •burnt offering.d•Selah

4May He give you what your heart desirese

and fulfill your whole purpose.f

5Let us shout for joy at your victoryg

and lift the banner in the name of our God.h

May Yahweh fulfill all your requests.i

6Now I know that the LORD gives victory to His anointed;j

He will answer him from His holy heaven

with mighty victories fromk His right hand.l

7Some take pride in chariots, and others in horses,

but we take pride in the name of Yahweh our God.m

8They collapse and fall,

but we rise and stand firm.n

9LORD, give victory to the king!o

May Hep answer us on the day that we call.
