< Psalms 21 >

1 Unto the end. A Psalm of David. In your virtue, Lord, the king will rejoice, and over your salvation, he will exult exceedingly.
Para el director del coro. Un salmo de David. El rey celebra tu fuerza, Señor. ¡Y está muy feliz de que le hayas dado la victoria!
2 You have granted him the desire of his heart, and you have not cheated him of the wish of his lips.
Le diste todo lo que quería; no le negaste nada de lo que pidió.
3 For you have gone ahead of him with blessings of sweetness. You have placed a crown of precious stones on his head.
Lo recibiste con bendiciones especiales cuando regresó; pusiste una corona de oro puro en su cabeza.
4 He petitioned you for life, and you have granted him length of days, in the present time, and forever and ever.
Te pidió que le dieras una buena vida, y le diste una larga vida, por siempre y para siempre.
5 Great is his glory in your salvation. Glory and great adornment, you will lay upon him.
Tus victorias le dan gran gloria; le concediste majestad y esplendor.
6 For you will give him as a blessing forever and ever. You will make him rejoice with gladness in your presence.
Le diste bendiciones por siempre. Está lleno de alegría porque tú estás con él.
7 Because the king hopes in the Lord, and in the mercy of the Most High, he will not be disturbed.
Porque el rey confía en el Señor; se mantiene firme por el amor inefable del altísimo.
8 May your hand be found by all your enemies. May your right hand discover all those who hate you.
Tú, el rey, encontrarás y capturarás a todos tus enemigos; te apoderarás de todos los que te odian.
9 You will make them like an oven of fire, in the time of your presence. The Lord will stir them up with his wrath, and fire will devour them.
Cuando aparezcas en la escena los quemarás a todos como en un horno. El Señor en su furia los destruirá a todos, y los quemará con fuego.
10 You will destroy their fruit from the earth and their offspring from the sons of men.
Tú acabarás con todos sus hijos en la tierra, con todos sus descendientes.
11 For they have turned evils upon you; they have devised plans, which they have not been able to accomplish.
Aunque conspiren el mal contra ti, sus planes malvados no tendrán éxito.
12 For you will make them turn their back; with your remnants, you will prepare their countenance.
Se volverán y huirán de ti cuando vean tus flechas de fuego sobre ellos.
13 Be exalted, Lord, by your own power. We will play music and sing psalms to your virtues.
Levántate, Señor, ¡Porque eres fuerte! ¡Cantaremos y te alabaremos por tu poder!
