Trust in the Name of the Lord Our God
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.
1 May the Lord[Gen. 35:3] answer you in the day of trouble!
May Prov. 18:10the name of the God of Jacob Ps. 59:1;69:29protect you!
2 May he send you help from Ps. 73:17;2 Chr. 20:8the sanctuary
and give you support from Ps. 128:5Zion!
3 May he [Acts 10:4]remember all your offerings
and regard with favor your burnt sacrifices! Selah
4 May he Ps. 21:2grant you your heart’s desire
and fulfill all your plans!
5 May we shout for joy over Ps. 9:14your salvation,
and in the name of our God set up our Ps. 60:4;Song 6:4,10banners!
May the Lord fulfill all your petitions!
6 Now I know that the Lord saves his anointed;
he will answer him from his holy heaven
with [Ps. 28:8]the saving might of his right hand.
7 Some trust in Isa. 31:1;36:9chariots and some in Prov. 21:31horses,
[1 Sam. 17:45;2 Chr. 32:8]but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
8 They collapse and fall,
but we rise and stand upright.
9 O Lord, save Ps. 48:2the king!
May he answer us when we call.
