20:1 (大衛的詩,交與伶長。)願耶和華在你遭難的日子應允你;願名為雅各上帝的高舉你。

20:5 我們要因你的救恩誇勝,要奉我們上帝的名豎立旌旗。願耶和華成就你一切所求的!
20:6 現在我知道耶和華救護他的受膏者,必從他的聖天上應允他,用右手的能力救護他。

For the director of music. A psalm of David.
1 May
the Lord answer you when you are
in distress;
may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
2 May he send you help from the sanctuary
and grant you support from Zion.
3 May he remember all your sacrifices
and accept your burnt offerings.[b]
4 May he give you the desire of your heart
and make all your plans succeed.
5 May we shout for joy over your victory
and lift up our banners in the name of our God.
may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
2 May he send you help from the sanctuary
and grant you support from Zion.
3 May he remember all your sacrifices
and accept your burnt offerings.[b]
4 May he give you the desire of your heart
and make all your plans succeed.
5 May we shout for joy over your victory
and lift up our banners in the name of our God.
May
the Lord grant all your requests.
6 Now
this I know:
The Lord gives victory to his anointed.
He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary
with the victorious power of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
8 They are brought to their knees and fall,
but we rise up and stand firm.
9 Lord, give victory to the king!
Answer us when we call!
The Lord gives victory to his anointed.
He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary
with the victorious power of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
8 They are brought to their knees and fall,
but we rise up and stand firm.
9 Lord, give victory to the king!
Answer us when we call!

這是位君王得勝的禱告詞,因為「有人靠車,有人靠馬,但我們要提到耶和華─我們上帝的名」。所以,要得著勝利是要靠上帝的名,也唯有上帝能保守祂的受膏者。
詩人在此受聖靈感動而宣告:「現在我知道耶和華救護他的受膏者,必從他的聖天上應允他,用右手的能力救護他。」也因為這樣,君王靠著耶和華得勝,以至於百姓可以靠上帝站立:「他們都屈身仆倒,我們卻起來,立得正直。」
而這詩篇也讓我們想到,上帝讓耶穌基督勝過死亡,從死裡復活,也拯救我們這些屬於祂的人脫離罪惡和死亡,可以成為上的的兒女,使我們可以站立在上帝面前事奉祂。這是出於上帝主動的作為,祂已讓基督得勝,也讓這樣的勝利賜給我們!所以,我們敬拜上帝,是要宣告這樣的勝利!
