Psalms 21
1 “To the chief musician, a psalm of David.” O Lord, because of thy strength will the king rejoice; and through thy salvation how greatly will he be glad!
Al Músico principal: Salmo de David. ALEGRARÁSE el rey en tu fortaleza, oh Jehová; y en tu salud se gozará mucho.
2 The longing of his heart hast thou given him, and the request of his lips hast thou 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 unasked with the blessings of happiness: thou settest on his head a crown of pure gold.
Pues le has salido al encuentro con bendiciones de bien: corona de oro fino has puesto sobre su cabeza.
4 Life hath he asked of thee, thou gavest it to him, length of days for ever and ever.
Vida te demandó, [y] dístele largura de días por siglos y siglos.
5 Great is his honor through thy help: glory and majesty thou layest upon him.
Grande es su gloria en tu salud: honra y majestad has puesto sobre él.
6 For thou appointest him to be a blessing for ever: thou makest him glad with joy from thy presence.
Porque lo has bendecido para siempre; llenástelo de alegría con tu rostro.
7 For the king trusteth in the Lord; and through the kindness of the Most High shall he not be moved.
Por cuanto el rey confía en Jehová, y en la misericordia del Altísimo, no será conmovido.
8 Thy hand will reach all thy enemies: thy right hand will reach those that hate thee.
Alcanzará tu mano á todos tus enemigos; tu diestra alcanzará á los que te aborrecen.
9 Thou wilt render them as a fiery oven at the time of thy anger: the Lord in his wrath will destroy them, and a fire will 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 wilt thou cause to perish 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 directed against thee evil: they devised a mischievous purpose, which they were not able to perform.
Porque trazaron el mal contra ti: fraguaron maquinaciones, [mas] no prevalecerán.
12 For thou wilt make them turn their back; upon thy bow-strings thou wilt make ready [thy arrows] against their face.
Pues tú los pondrás en fuga, [cuando] aparejares en tus cuerdas [las saetas] contra sus rostros.
13 Exalt thyself, O Lord, in thy strength; [and] we will sing and praise thy power.
Ensálzate, oh Jehová, con tu fortaleza: cantaremos y alabaremos tu poderío.
