¹ May the Lord answer you in times of trouble.
    May the God of Jacob protect you.
² May he send you help from his Holy Place.
    May he support you from Zion.
³ May he remember all the gifts you have offered.
    May he accept all your sacrifices. Selah
⁴ May he give you what you really want.
    May he make all your plans successful.
⁵ We will celebrate when he helps you.
    We will praise the name of God.
May the Lord give you everything you ask for.

⁶ Now I know the Lord helps his chosen king.
    From his holy heaven he answered.
    With his great power he saved him.
⁷ Some give the credit for victory to their chariots and soldiers,
    but we honor the Lord our God.
⁸ They fall in battle, totally defeated,
    but we survive and stand strong!

⁹ Lord, save the king!
    Answer us when we call to you for help.
