Psalms Chapter 21

1aTo the choirmaster.↑

A Psalm of David.

1bO Lord, the king will take pleasure in your strength,

And how greatly he shall rejoice in your salvation!

2You have given him his heart's desire,

And you have not withheld the request of his lips.

Selah.

3For you have gone in front of him,

With blessings of goodness;

You have put a crown of pure gold on his head.

4He asked you for life;

You gave him it

– Length of days,

Age-long and in perpetuity.

5His glory is great through your salvation;

You bestow majesty and splendour on him.

6For you have appointed him everlasting blessings;

You have gladdened him with happiness at your presence.

7For the king trusts in the Lord.

And through kindness of the Most High,

He shall not falter.

8Your hand will find all your enemies;

Your right hand will discover those who hate you.

9You will appoint them a fiery furnace

At the time of your presence.

The Lord will swallow them up in his wrath,

And fire will consume them.

10You will eliminate their fruit from the earth,

And their seed from among the sons of Adam.

11For they have tendered you wickedness;

They have devised machinations,

But they will not prevail.

12For you have appointed them to flight;

With your bowstring you aim at their face.

13Be exalted, O Lord, in your strength;

Let us sing

And sing psalms of your might.
