Oração a favor do rei
Ao mestre de canto. Salmo de Davi

1 O Senhor te responda no dia da tribulação;

o nome do Deus de Jacó te eleve em segurança.

2 Do seu santuário te envie socorro

e desde Sião te sustenha.

3 Lembre-se de todas as tuas ofertas de manjares

e aceite os teus holocaustos.

4 Conceda-te segundo o teu coração

e realize todos os teus desígnios.

5 Celebraremos com júbilo a tua vitória

e em nome do nosso Deus hastearemos pendões;

satisfaça o Senhor a todos os teus votos.

6 Agora, sei que o Senhor salva o seu ungido;

ele lhe responderá do seu santo céu

com a vitoriosa força de sua destra.

7 Uns confiam em carros, outros, em cavalos;

nós, porém, nos gloriaremos em o nome do Senhor, nosso Deus.

8 Eles se encurvam e caem;

nós, porém, nos levantamos e nos mantemos de pé.

9 Ó Senhor, dá vitória ao rei;

responde-nos, quando clamarmos.

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

1 Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble;

The name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high;

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 thy heart’s desire,

And fulfil all thy counsel.

5 We will triumph in thy salvation,

And in the name of our God we will set up our banners:

Jehovah fulfil all thy petitions.

6 Now know I that Jehovah saveth his 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 horses;

But we will make mention of the name of Jehovah our God.

8 They are bowed down and fallen;

But we are risen, and stand upright.

9 Save, Jehovah:

Let the King answer us when we call.

1 May the LORD answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

2 May he send you help from the sanctuary and grant you support from Zion.

3 May he remember all your sacrifices and accept your burnt offerings. Selah

4 May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.

5 We will shout for joy when you are victorious and will lift up our banners in the name of our God. May the LORD grant all your requests.

6 Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed; he answers him from his holy heaven with the saving power of his right hand.

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

8 They are brought to their knees and fall, but we rise up and stand firm.

9 O LORD, save the king! Answer us when we call!
