# Chapter 21
|
||
1 Lord, the king finds joy in your strength.
|
||
How greatly he rejoices in your victory!
|
||
2 You have given him his heart’s desire
|
||
and have not denied the request of his lips. Selah
|
||
3 For you meet him with rich blessings;
|
||
you place a crown of pure gold on his head.
|
||
4 He asked you for life, and you gave it to him—
|
||
length of days forever and ever.
|
||
5 His glory is great through your victory;
|
||
you confer majesty and splendor on him.
|
||
6 You give him blessings forever;
|
||
you cheer him with joy in your presence.
|
||
7 For the king relies on the Lord;
|
||
through the faithful love of the Most High
|
||
he is not shaken.
|
||
8 Your hand will capture all your enemies;
|
||
your right hand will seize those who hate you.
|
||
9 You will make them burn
|
||
like a fiery furnace when you appear;
|
||
the Lord will engulf them in his wrath,
|
||
and fire will devour them.
|
||
10 You will wipe their progeny from the earth
|
||
and their offspring from the human race.
|
||
11 Though they intend to harm you
|
||
and devise a wicked plan, they will not prevail.
|
||
12 Instead, you will put them to flight
|
||
when you ready your bowstrings to shoot at them.
|
||
13 Be exalted, Lord, in your strength;
|
||
we will sing and praise your might. |
