King James Bible

1

{To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.} The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee;

2

Send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;

3

Remember all thy offerings, and accept thy burnt sacrifice; Selah.

4

Grant thee according to thine own heart, and fulfil all thy counsel.

5

We will rejoice in thy salvation, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners: the LORD fulfil all thy petitions.

6

Now know I that the LORD saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.

7

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.

8

They are brought down and fallen: but we are risen, and stand upright.

9

Save, LORD: let the king hear us when we call.
