The Assurance of God’s Saving Work

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
  1May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble;
   May the name of the God of Jacob defend you;
   2May He send you help from the sanctuary,
   And strengthen you out of Zion;
   3May He remember all your offerings,
   And accept your burnt sacrifice.
Selah
  4May He grant you according to your heart’s desire,
   And fulfill all your purpose.
   5We will rejoice in your salvation,
   And in the name of our God we will set up our banners!
   May the Lord fulfill all your petitions.
  6Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed;
   He will answer him from His holy heaven
   With the saving strength of His right hand.
  7Some trust in chariots, and some in horses;
   But we will remember the name of the Lord our God.
   8They have bowed down and fallen;
   But we have risen and stand upright.
  9Save, Lord!
   May the King answer us when we call.

祈求胜利

  1愿耶和华在你患难的日子应允你,
   愿雅各的上帝的名保护你。
  2愿他从圣所救助你,
   从锡安坚固你,
  3记念你的一切祭物,
   悦纳你的燔祭,(细拉)
  4将你心所愿的赐给你,
   成就你的一切筹算。
  5我们要因你的救恩夸胜,
   要奉我们上帝的名竖立旌旗。
  愿耶和华成就你一切所求的!

  6现在我知道耶和华必救护他的受膏者,
   从他神圣的天上应允他,
   用右手的能力救护他。
  7有人靠车,有人靠马,
   但我们要提耶和华-我们上帝的名。
  8他们都屈身仆倒,
   我们却起来,坚立不移。

  9耶和华啊,求你拯救;
   我们呼求的时候,愿王应允我们!
