19:1. Unto the end. A psalm for David.
19:2. May the Lord hear thee in the day of tribulation: may the name of the God of Jacob protect thee.
19:3. May he send thee help from the sanctuary: and defend thee out of Sion.
19:4. May he be mindful of all thy sacrifices: and may thy whole burntoffering be made fat.
19:5. May he give thee according to thy own heart; and confirm all thy counsels.
19:6. We will rejoice in thy salvation; and in the name of our God we shall be exalted.
19:7. The Lord fulfil all thy petitions: now have I known that the Lord hath saved his anointed. He will hear him from his holy heaven: the salvation of his right hand is in powers.
The salvation of his right hand is in powers.... That is, in strength. His right hand is strong and mighty to save them that trust in him.
19:8. Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will call upon the name of the Lord, our God.
19:9. They are bound, and have fallen: but we are risen, and are set upright. O Lord, save the king: and hear us in the day that we shall call upon thee.
