1(20) For the end, a Psalm of David. The Lord hear you in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend you.
1The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.
2Send you help from the sanctuary, and aid you out of Sion.
2Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
3Remember all your sacrifice, and enrich your whole burnt offering. Pause.
3There is no speech nor language, where their voice is not heard.
4Grant you according to your heart, and fulfill all your desire.
4Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
5We will exult in your salvation, and in the name of our God shall we be magnified: the Lord fulfil all your petitions.
5Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
6Now I know that the Lord has saved his Christ: he shall hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is mighty.
6His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
7Some [glory] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will glory in the name of the Lord our God.
7The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple.
8They are overthrown and fallen: but we are risen, and have been set upright.
8The statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes.
9O Lord , save the king: and hear us in whatever day we call upon you.
9The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.
