< Psalms 21 >

1 For the Leader. A Psalm of David. O LORD, in Thy strength the king rejoiceth; and in Thy salvation how greatly doth he exult!
in finem psalmus David Domine in virtute tua laetabitur rex et super salutare tuum exultabit vehementer
2 Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and the request of his lips Thou hast not withholden. (Selah)
desiderium animae eius tribuisti ei et voluntate labiorum eius non fraudasti eum diapsalma
3 For Thou meetest him with choicest blessings; Thou settest a crown of fine gold on his head.
quoniam praevenisti eum in benedictionibus dulcedinis posuisti in capite eius coronam de lapide pretioso
4 He asked life of Thee, Thou gavest it him; even length of days for ever and ever.
vitam petiit a te et tribuisti ei longitudinem dierum in saeculum et in saeculum saeculi
5 His glory is great through Thy salvation; honour and majesty dost Thou lay upon him.
magna gloria eius in salutari tuo gloriam et magnum decorem inpones super eum
6 For Thou makest him most blessed for ever; Thou makest him glad with joy in Thy presence.
quoniam dabis eum benedictionem in saeculum saeculi laetificabis eum in gaudio cum vultu tuo
7 For the king trusteth in the LORD, yea, in the mercy of the Most High; he shall not be moved.
quoniam rex sperat in Domino et in misericordia Altissimi non commovebitur
8 Thy hand shall be equal to all thine enemies; thy right hand shall overtake those that hate thee.
inveniatur manus tua omnibus inimicis tuis dextera tua inveniat omnes qui te oderunt
9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery furnace in the time of thine anger; the LORD shall swallow them up in His wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
pones eos ut clibanum ignis in tempore vultus tui Dominus in ira sua conturbabit eos et devorabit eos ignis
10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
fructum eorum de terra perdes et semen eorum a filiis hominum
11 For they intended evil against thee, they imagined a device, wherewith they shall not prevail.
quoniam declinaverunt in te mala cogitaverunt consilia quae non potuerunt stabilire
12 For thou shalt make them turn their back, thou shalt make ready with thy bowstrings against the face of them.
quoniam pones eos dorsum in reliquis tuis praeparabis vultum eorum
13 Be Thou exalted, O LORD, in Thy strength; so will we sing and praise Thy power.
exaltare Domine in virtute tua cantabimus et psallemus virtutes tuas
