1For the leader. A psalm of David: May ADONAI answer you in times of distress, may the name of the God of Ya'akov protect you.
2May he send you help from the sanctuary and give you support from Tziyon.
3May he be reminded by all your grain offerings and accept the fat of your burnt offerings. (Selah)
4May he grant you your heart's desire and bring all your plans to success.
5Then we will shout for joy at your victory and fly our flags in the name of our God. May ADONAI fulfill all your requests.
6Now I know that ADONAI gives victory to his anointed one -he will answer him from his holy heaven with mighty victories by his right hand.
7Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we praise the name of ADONAI our God.
8They will crumple and fall, but we will arise and stand erect.
9Give victory, ADONAI! Let the King answer us the day we call.
