Psalms 20 is traditionally recited in times of stress, especially during childbirth.
Psalms 20 is recited in its entirety as part of the daily shaḥarit service, between Ashrei and Uva Letziyon (at the end of shaḥarit). Psalms 20:2 and Psalms 20:10 are part of the opening paragraph of the long Tachanun recited on Mondays and Thursdays. Psalms 20:10 is also the 11th verse of V’hu Raḥum and the final verse of Yehi Kavod in Pesukei Dezimra; it is included in Uva Letzion; it is the second of two verses recited as an introduction at Maariv; and it is part of series of verses introducing the Havdalah for Shabbat.
The special Ladino diacritic appearing over some of the letters (e.g., שﬞ) is called a varika.

David ben Yishai was the second king of the United Kingdom of Israel and Judah, reigning ca. 1010–970 BCE. While almost half of the Psalms are headed "l'David" and tradition identifies several with specific events in David’s life (e.g., Psalms № 3, 7, 18, 34, 51, 52, 54, 56, 57, 59, 60, 63 and 142), most scholars consider these headings to be late additions and that no psalm can be attributed to David with certainty. 1 Samuel 16:15-18 describes David as a skillful harp (lyre) player and "the sweet psalmist of Israel."
George Griffith was an English Protestant whose missionary press in Izmir published Ladino translations of the Scriptures in the mid-19th century Ottoman Empire. Established in 1838 to serve the Anglican mission, Estampado por Ǧ. Griffit was the only press in Izmir with a Sepharadi cursive ("Rashi") font available for publishing in Ladino.
