Psalm 21
1 | The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice! | |
2 | Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah. | |
3 | For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head. | |
4 | He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever. | |
5 | His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him. | |
6 | For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance. | |
7 | For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved. | |
8 | Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee. | |
9 | Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them. | |
10 | Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men. | |
11 | For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform. | |
12 | Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them. | |
13 | Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power. |
