A Prayer for VictoryPs 20 Hebrew title: A psalm by David.
1May the LORD answer you when you are in trouble!
May the God of Jacob protect you!
2May he send you help from his Temple
and give you aid from Mount Zion.
3May he accept all your offerings
and be pleased with all your sacrifices.
4May he give you what you desire
and make all your plans succeed.
5Then we will shout for joy over your victory
and celebrate your triumph by praising our God.
May the LORD answer all your requests.
6Now I know that the LORD gives victory to his chosen king;
he answers him from his holy heaven
and by his power gives him great victories.
7Some trust in their war chariots
and others in their horses,
but we trust in the power of the LORD our God.
8Such people will stumble and fall,
but we will rise and stand firm.
