20Exaudiat te Dominus

1May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble, *
the Name of the God of Jacob defend you;

2Send you help from his holy place *
and strengthen you out of Zion;

3Remember all your offerings *
and accept your burnt sacrifice;

4Grant you your heart’s desire *
and prosper all your plans.

5We will shout for joy at your victory
and triumph in the Name of our God; *
may the Lord grant all your requests.

6Now I know that the Lord gives victory to his anointed; *
he will answer him out of his holy heaven,
with the victorious strength of his right hand.

7Some put their trust in chariots and some in horses, *
but we will call upon the Name of the Lord our God.

8They collapse and fall down, *
but we will arise and stand upright.

9O Lord, give victory to the king *
and answer us when we call.

21Domine, in virtute tua

1The king rejoices in your strength, O Lord; *
how greatly he exults in your victory!

2You have given him his heart’s desire; *

you have not denied him the request of his lips.

608Psalms 20, 21
