We Will Boast in the Name of Yahweh

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

1May Yahweh answer you in the day of distress!

May the name of the God of Jacob set you securely on high!

2May He send you help from the sanctuary

And uphold you from Zion!

3May He remember all your meal offerings

And find your burnt offering [†]acceptable! [†]Selah.

4May He grant you your heart’s desire

And fulfill all your [†]counsel!

5[†]We will sing for joy over your salvation,

And in the name of our God we will set up our banners.

May Yahweh fulfill all your petitions.

6Now I know that Yahweh saves His anointed;

He will answer him from His holy heaven

With the [†]saving might of His right hand.

7Some [†]boast in chariots and some in horses,

But we will boast in the name of Yahweh, our God.

8They have bowed down and fallen,

But we have risen and stood upright.

9[†]Save, O Yahweh;

May the King answer us in the day we call.
