201 May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble ! May the name of the God of Jacob set you securely on high ! 2 May He send you help from the sanctuary And support you from Zion ! 3 May He remember all your meal offerings And find your burnt offering acceptable ! Selah . 4 May He grant you your heart's desire And fulfill all your counsel ! 5 We will sing for joy over your victory , And in the name of our God we will set up our banners . 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 the saving strength of His right hand . 7 Some boast in chariots and some in horses , But we will boast in the name of the Lord , our God . 8 They have bowed down and fallen , But we have risen and stood upright . 9 Save , O Lord ; May the King answer us in the day we call .
