YHWH is evoked by the prayerful who appeals to the deeds of the messiahking (vv. 2-6), in the hope that, through such deeds, the divine intervention will take place before the enemy (v. 7). This will bring, as consequence, the experience of salvation (vv. 8-10). The Ps 20 shows that human power, at any time or place, nothing can do against YHWH and his anointed. What characterizes the desired salvation is the faith that is based on the power divine s name and not on the war power, because this nothing represents in the presence and action of YHWH. This study proposes a synchronic approach of Ps 20 in structural, semantic and linguistic key. It is subdivided into four parts: 1) Segmented translation and some textual criticism notes; 2) Structural analysis; 3) Terminological analysis; 4) Final considerations: Analysis of the speeches.
