    May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble; 
 May the name of the God of Jacob  1 defend you;
  
  
  
  2
  
  
  
    May He send you help from the sanctuary, 
 And strengthen you out of Zion;
  
  
  
  3
  
  
  
    May He remember all your offerings, 
 And accept your burnt sacrifice. Selah
  
    
  
  4
  
  
  
    May He grant you according to your heart's desire, 
 And  a fulfill all your  2 purpose.
  
  
  
  5
  
  
  
    We will rejoice in your salvation, 
 And in the name of our God we will set up our banners! 
 May the LORD fulfill all your petitions.

    Now I know that the LORD saves His  3 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  b horses; 
 But we will remember the name of the LORD our God.
  
  
  
  8
  
  
  
    They have bowed down and fallen; 
 But we have risen and stand upright.
  
    
  
  9
  
  
  
    Save, LORD! 
 May the King answer us when we call.
