psalms 20:1 The LORD hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee; - Free Bible Online

psalms 20:1 [For the choir director. A Psalm of David] May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble! May the name of the God of Jacob set you [securely] on high!


      Ps 20:1-9. David probably composed this Psalm to express the prayers of the pious for his success as at once the head of the Church and nation. Like other compositions of which David in such relations is the subject, its sentiments have a permanent value--the prosperity of Christ's kingdom being involved, as well as typified, in that of Israel and its king.

      1. hear thee--graciously (Ps 4:1).
      name of--or manifested perfections, as power, wisdom, &c.
      defend thee--set thee on high from danger (Ps 9:9; 18:3).
