Selah May He give you the desires of your heart and make all your plans succeed.

Now I know that the LORD saves His anointed; He answers him from His holy heaven with the saving power of His right hand.
7
Some trust in chariots and others in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

They collapse and fall, but we rise up and stand firm.
9
O LORD, save (a) the king. Answer us on the day we call.
