Psalm 20:1-Psalm 21:1 - Deliverance In Battle

1 May the LORD answer you in the day of distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you. 2 May he send you help from the sanctuary, and may he sustain you from Zion. 3 May he remember all your gifts, and may he accept your burnt offerings. Interlude

4 May he give you what your heart desires, and may he fulfill all your plans. 5 May we shout for joy at your deliverance and unfurl our banners in the name of our God. May the LORD fulfill all your petitions.

6 Now 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. 7 Some boast in chariots, others in horses; but we will boast in the name of the LORD our God. 8 While they bowed down and fell, we arose and stood upright. 9 Deliver us, LORD! Answer us, our King, on the day we cry out! To the Director: A Davidic Psalm.

1 The king rejoices in your strength, LORD. How greatly he rejoices in your deliverance.
