1 May Yahweh answer you in a day of trouble;(a)
may the name of Jacob's God protect you.(b)
2 May He send you help from the sanctuary
and sustain you from Zion.(c)
3 May He remember all your offerings
and accept your burnt offering.(d)Selah

4 May He give you what your heart desires(e)
and fulfill your whole purpose.(f)
5 Let us shout for joy at your victory(g)
and lift the banner in the name of our God.(h)
May Yahweh fulfill all your requests.(i)

6 Now I know that the Lord gives victory to His anointed;(j)
He will answer him from His holy heaven
with mighty victories from[a] His right hand.(k)
7 Some take pride in chariots, and others in horses,
but we take pride in the name of Yahweh our God.(l)
8 They collapse and fall,
but we rise and stand firm.(m)
9 Lord, give victory to the king!(n)
May He[b] answer us on the day that we call.
