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