Psalm 19
|
1
(To the choir-master. A psalm. Of David.)
2
The Lord listen to thee in thy time of need, the power of Jacob’s God be thy protection!
3
May he send thee aid from his holy place, watch over thee, there on mount Sion;
4
may he remember all thy offerings, and find savour in thy burnt-sacrifice.
5
May he grant thee what thy heart desires, crown thy hopes with fulfilment.
6
So may we rejoice at thy deliverance, rallied in the name of the Lord our God;
7
abundantly may he grant thy prayer. Shall I doubt that the Lord protects the king he has anointed, will listen to him from his sanctuary in heaven? Is not his right hand strong to save?
8
Let others talk of horses and chariots; our refuge is the name of the Lord our God.
9
Stumbled and fallen they, while we stand firm on our feet.
10
O Lord, save the king, and hear us in the hour when we call upon thee.
