4May he give you what your heart desires, and may he fulfill all your plans. | 4May he grant your heart’s desires and make all your plans succeed. |

6Now I know that the LORD has delivered his anointed; he has answered him from his sanctuary with the strength of his right hand of deliverance. | 6Now I know that the LORD rescues his anointed king. He will answer him from his holy heaven and rescue him by his great power. |
7Some boast in chariots, others in horses; but we will boast in the name of the LORD our God. | 7Some nations boast of their chariots and horses, but we boast in the name of the LORD our God. |
8While they bowed down and fell, we arose and stood upright. | 8Those nations will fall down and collapse, but we will rise up and stand firm. |
9Deliver us, LORD! Answer us, our King, on the day we cry out! | 9Give victory to our king, O LORD! Answer our cry for help. |
