Psalm 21
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. How the king rejoices in your strength, O LORD!
|
|
|
|
He shouts with joy because you give him victory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. For you have given him his heart's desire;
|
|
|
|
you have withheld nothing he requested. Interlude
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. You welcomed him back with success and prosperity.
|
|
|
|
You placed a crown of finest gold on his head.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. He asked you to preserve his life,
|
|
|
|
and you granted his request.
|
|
|
|
The days of his life stretch on forever.
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Your victory brings him great honor,
|
|
|
|
and you have clothed him with splendor and majesty.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. You have endowed him with eternal blessings
|
|
|
|
and given him the joy of your presence.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. For the king trusts in the LORD.
|
|
|
|
The unfailing love of the Most High will keep him from stumbling.
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. You will capture all your enemies.
|
|
|
|
Your strong right hand will seize all who hate you.
|
|
|
|
|
|
9. You will throw them in a flaming furnace
|
|
|
|
when you appear.
|
|
The LORD will consume them in his anger;
|
|
|
|
fire will devour them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10. You will wipe their children from the face of the earth;
|
|
|
|
they will never have descendants.
|
|
|
|
|
|
11. Although they plot against you,
|
|
|
|
their evil schemes will never succeed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
12. For they will turn and run
|
|
|
|
when they see your arrows aimed at them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
13. Rise up, O LORD, in all your power.
|
|
|
|
With music and singing we celebrate your mighty acts.
