|
|
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;
Honour 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.
