< 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!
Jehová, en tu fortaleza se alegrará el rey; y en tu salud se regocijará mucho.
2 Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and the request of his lips Thou hast not withholden. (Selah)
El deseo de su corazón le diste; y no le negaste lo que sus labios pronunciaron. (Selah)
3 For Thou meetest him with choicest blessings; Thou settest a crown of fine gold on his head.
Por tanto le adelantarás en bendiciones de bien: corona de oro fino has puesto sobre su cabeza.
4 He asked life of Thee, Thou gavest it him; even length of days for ever and ever.
Vida te demandó, se la diste: longura de días, por siglo y siglo.
5 His glory is great through Thy salvation; honour and majesty dost Thou lay upon him.
Grande es su gloria en tu salud: honra y hermosura has puesto sobre él.
6 For Thou makest him most blessed for ever; Thou makest him glad with joy in Thy presence.
Porque le has bendecido para siempre: alegrástele de alegría con tu rostro.
7 For the king trusteth in the LORD, yea, in the mercy of the Most High; he shall not be moved.
Por cuanto el rey confía en Jehová: y en la misericordia del Altísimo no titubeará.
8 Thy hand shall be equal to all thine enemies; thy right hand shall overtake those that hate thee.
Alcanzará tu mano a todos tus enemigos: tu diestra alcanzará a los que te aborrecen.
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.
Ponerlos has como horno de fuego en el tiempo de tu ira: Jehová los deshará en su furor, y fuego los consumirá.
10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
Su fruto destruirás de la tierra: y su simiente de entre los hijos de los hombres.
11 For they intended evil against thee, they imagined a device, wherewith they shall not prevail.
Porque tendieron mal contra ti: maquinaron maquinación, mas no prevalecieron.
12 For thou shalt make them turn their back, thou shalt make ready with thy bowstrings against the face of them.
Por tanto ponerlos has a parte: con tus cuerdas apuntarás a sus rostros.
13 Be Thou exalted, O LORD, in Thy strength; so will we sing and praise Thy power.
Ensálzate, o! Jehová, con tu fortaleza: cantaremos y alabaremos tu valentía.
