The Jewish Custom is to recite (at a minimum) Psalm 20 when one is,
G-d forbid, in distress. 

We are providing the English Translation of this Psalm below:


Psalm 20

For the Choirmaster; a Psalm by David.

May the L-rd answer you on the day of distress; may the Name of the
G-d of Jacob fortify you.

May He send your help from the Sanctuary, and support you from Zion.

May He remember all your offerings, and always accept favorably your
sacrifices.

May He grant you your heart's desire, and fulfill your every counsel.

We will rejoice in your deliverance, and raise our banners in the
name of our G-d; may the L-rd fulfill all your wishes.

Now I know that the L-rd has delivered His anointed one, answering
him from His holy heavens with the mighty saving power of His right
hand.

Some [rely] upon chariots and some upon horses, but we [rely upon
and] invoke the Name of the L-rd our G-d.

They bend and fall, but we rise and stand firm.

L-rd, deliver us; may the King answer us on the day we call.
