The day of calamity

1
TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF DAVID. YHWH answers you, || In a day of adversity, || The Name of the God of Jacob sets you on high,
2
He sends your help from the sanctuary, || And supports you from Zion,
3
He remembers all your presents, || And reduces your burnt-offering to ashes. Selah.
4
He gives to you according to your heart, || And fulfills all your counsel.
5
We sing of Your salvation, || And in the Name of our God set up a banner. YHWH fulfills all your requests.
6
Now I have known || That YHWH has saved His anointed, || He answers him from His holy heavens, || With the saving might of His right hand.
7
Some of chariots, and some of horses, || And we of the Name of our God YHWH || Make mention.
8
They have bowed and have fallen, || And we have risen and station ourselves upright.
9
O YHWH, save the king, || He answers us in the day we call!

The day of calamity

1
May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble. May the name of the God of Jacob set you up on high,
2
send you help from the sanctuary, grant you support from Zion,
3
remember all your offerings, and accept your burned sacrifice. Selah.
4
May he grant you your heart’s desire, and fulfill all your counsel.
5
We will triumph in your salvation. In the name of our God, we will set up our banners. May the LORD grant all your requests.
6
Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed. He will answer him from his holy heaven, with the saving strength 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 are bowed down and fallen, but we rise up, and stand upright.
9
Save, LORD! Let the King answer us when we call!
