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.
4
May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.
5
May we shout for joy over your victory and lift up our banners in the name of our God. May the Lord grant all your requests.
6
Now this I know: The Lord gives victory to his anointed. He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary with the victorious 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
Lord, give victory to the king! Answer us when we call!
