Trust in the Name of the Lord Our God

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

 May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble!
   May the name of the God of Jacob protect you!
² May he send you help from the sanctuary
   and give you support from Zion!
³ May he remember all your offerings
   and regard with favor your burnt sacrifices! Selah

⁴ May he grant you your heart's desire
and fulfill all your plans!
⁵ May we shout for joy over your salvation,
and in the name of our God set up our banners!
May the Lord fulfill all your petitions!

⁶ Now I know that the Lord saves his anointed;
he will answer him from his holy heaven
with the saving might 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 collapse and fall,
but we rise and stand upright.

⁹ O Lord, save the king!
May he answer us when we call.
