For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.Jehovah answer thee in the day of trouble;The name of the God of Jacob set thee up on high;
Send thee help from the sanctuary,And {Or, support}strengthen thee out of Zion;
Remember all thy {Or, meal-offerings}offerings,And {Hebrew: accept as fat.}accept thy burnt-sacrifice; [Selah.
Grant thee thy heart's desire,And fulfil all thy counsel.
He was despised, and {Or, forsaken}rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with {Hebrew: sickness.}grief: and {Or, he hid as it were his face from us}as one from whom men hide their face he was despised; and we esteemed him not.

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.The heavens declare the glory of God;And the firmament showeth his handiwork.
