诗篇 21

1 大卫的诗，交与伶长。 耶和华啊，王必因你的能力欢喜； 因你的救恩，他的快乐何其大！

To the Chief Musician. A Melody of David. O Yahweh, in thy strength, will the king rejoice, and, in thy salvation, how greatly will he exult!

2 他心里所愿的，你已经赐给他； 他嘴唇所求的，你未尝不应允。 (细拉)

The longing of his heart, hast thou given him, and, the request of his lips, hast thou not withheld. (Selah)

3 你以美福迎接他， 把精金的冠冕戴在他头上。

For thou wilt come to meet him, with the blessings of goodness, Thou wilt set on his head, a crown of pure gold.

4 他向你求寿，你便赐给他， 就是日子长久，直到永远。

Life, he asked of thee, Thou hast given it him, length of days, to times age-abiding and beyond.

5 他因你的救恩大有荣耀； 你又将尊荣威严加在他身上。

Great is his glory, in thy salvation, Honour and majesty, wilt thou lay upon him;

6 你使他有洪福，直到永远， 又使他在你面前欢喜快乐。

For thou wilt appoint him blessings evermore, wilt cheer him with joy by thy countenance;

7 王倚靠耶和华， 因至高者的慈爱必不摇动。

For, the king, is trusting in Yahweh, and, in the lovingkindness of the Highest, shall he not be shaken.

8 你的手要搜出你的一切仇敌； 你的右手要搜出那些恨你的人。

Thy hand, will find out, all thy foes, Thine own right hand, will find out them who hate thee.

9 你发怒的时候，要使他们如在炎热的火炉中。 耶和华要在他的震怒中吞灭他们； 那火要把他们烧尽了。

Thou wilt make them like a furnace of fire, at the time of thy presence, —Yahweh, in his anger, will swallow them up, and there shall consume them a fire:

10 你必从世上灭绝他们的子孙， 从人间灭绝他们的后裔。

Their fruit—out of the earth, wilt thou destroy, and their seed, from among the sons of men;

11 因为他们有意加害于你； 他们想出计谋，却不能作成。

For they have held out, against thee, a wicked thing, They have devised a scheme they cannot accomplish.

12 你必使他们转背逃跑， 向他们的脸搭箭在弦。

For thou wilt cause them to turn their back, Upon thy bow-strings, wilt thou make ready against their face.

13 耶和华啊，愿你因自己的能力显为至高！ 这样，我们就唱诗，歌颂你的大能。

Be exalted, O Yahweh, in thy strength! With song and with string will we sound forth thy power.
