1Jehová te oiga en el día de conflicto; El nombre del Dios de Jacob te defienda.
2Te envíe ayuda desde el santuario, Y desde Sion te sostenga.
3Haga memoria de todas tus ofrendas, Y acepte tu holocausto.
4Te dé conforme al deseo de tu corazón, Y cumpla todo tu consejo.
5Nosotros nos alegraremos en tu salvación, Y alzaremos pendón en el nombre de nuestro Dios; Conceda Jehová todas tus peticiones.
6Ahora conozco que Jehová salva a su ungido; Lo oirá desde sus santos cielos Con la potencia salvadora de su diestra.
7Estos confían en carros, y aquellos en caballos; Mas nosotros del nombre de Jehová nuestro Dios tendremos memoria.
8Ellos flaquean y caen, Mas nosotros nos levantamos, y estamos en pie.
9Salva, Jehová; Que el Rey nos oiga en el día que lo invoquemos.
