Psalm 20
Darby Translation · 9 verses
To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
1Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob protect thee;2May he send thee help from the sanctuary, and strengthen thee out of Zion;3Remember all thine oblations, and accept thy burnt-offering; Selah.4Grant thee according to thy heart, and fulfil all thy counsels.5We will triumph in thy salvation, and in the name of our God will we set up our banners. Jehovah fulfil all thy petitions!6Now know I that Jehovah saveth his anointed; he answereth him from the heavens of his holiness, with the saving strength of his right hand.7Some make mention of chariots, and some of horses, but we of the name of Jehovah our God.8They are bowed down and fallen; but we are risen and stand upright.9Save, Jehovah! Let the king answer us in the day we call.Darby's Synopsis
In Psalm 20 we have, in the midst of sorrows and evil come in as regards the two preceding testimonies, the faithful witness, the living witness Himself. He is seen in the day of His distress, for He is come down into the midst of an ungodly people. The remnant is prophetically designated by the fact that they in heart enter into His distress, assured that Jehovah will hear His Anointed.
