1 May the Lord answer you when you are in distress;a

may the name of the God of Jacobb protect you.c

2 May he send you helpd from the sanctuarye

and grant you supportf from Zion.g

3 May he rememberh all your sacrifices

and accept your burnt offerings.b i

4 May he give you the desire of your heartj

and make all your plans succeed.k

5 May we shout for joyl over your victory

and lift up our bannersm in the name of our God.

May the Lord grant all your requests.n

6 Now this I know:

The Lord gives victory to his anointed.o

He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary

with the victorious power of his right hand.p

7 Some trust in chariotsq and some in horses,r

but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.s

8 They are brought to their knees and fall,t

but we rise upu and stand firm.v

9 Lord, give victory to the king!

Answer usw when we call!
