# Chapter 21
|
||
1 The king shall have joy in Your strength, O Lord;
|
||
And in Your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
|
||
2 You have given him his heart’s desire,
|
||
And have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah
|
||
3 For You meet him with the blessings of goodness;
|
||
You set a crown of pure gold upon his head.
|
||
4 He asked life from You, and You gave it to him—
|
||
Length of days forever and ever.
|
||
5 His glory is great in Your salvation;
|
||
Honor and majesty You have placed upon him.
|
||
6 For You have made him most blessed forever;
|
||
You have made him exceedingly glad with Your presence.
|
||
7 For the king trusts in the Lord,
|
||
And through the mercy of the Most High he shall not be moved.
|
||
8 Your hand will find all Your enemies;
|
||
Your right hand will find those who hate You.
|
||
9 You shall make them as a fiery oven in the time of Your anger;
|
||
The Lord shall swallow them up in His wrath,
|
||
And the fire shall devour them.
|
||
10 Their offspring You shall destroy from the earth,
|
||
And their descendants from among the sons of men.
|
||
11 For they intended evil against You;
|
||
They devised a plot which they are not able to perform.
|
||
12 Therefore You will make them turn their back;
|
||
You will make ready Your arrows on Your string toward their faces.
|
||
13 Be exalted, O Lord, in Your own strength!
|
||
We will sing and praise Your power. |
