Psalms 21
1 [For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David.] The king rejoices in your strength, LORD. How greatly he rejoices in your salvation.
| לַמְנַצֵּחַ מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ יְֽהוָה בְּעָזְּךָ יִשְׂמַח־מֶלֶךְ וּבִישׁוּעָתְךָ מַה־יגיל יָּגֶל מְאֹֽד׃ |
2 You have given him his heart's desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. (Selah)
| תַּאֲוַת לִבּוֹ נָתַתָּה לּוֹ וַאֲרֶשֶׁת שְׂפָתָיו בַּל־מָנַעְתָּ סֶּֽלָה׃ |
3 For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.
| כִּֽי־תְקַדְּמֶנּוּ בִּרְכוֹת טוֹב תָּשִׁית לְרֹאשׁוֹ עֲטֶרֶת פָּֽז׃ |
4 He asked life of you, you gave it to him, even length of days forever and ever.
| חַיִּים ׀ שָׁאַל מִמְּךָ נָתַתָּה לּוֹ אֹרֶךְ יָמִים עוֹלָם וָעֶֽד׃ |
5 His glory is great in your salvation. You lay honor and majesty on him.
| גָּדוֹל כְּבוֹדוֹ בִּישׁוּעָתֶךָ הוֹד וְהָדָר תְּשַׁוֶּה עָלָֽיו׃ |
6 For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad with joy in your presence.
| כִּֽי־תְשִׁיתֵהוּ בְרָכוֹת לָעַד תְּחַדֵּהוּ בְשִׂמְחָה אֶת־פָּנֶֽיךָ׃ |
7 For the king trusts in the LORD. Through the loving kindness of the Most High, he shall not be moved.
| כִּֽי־הַמֶּלֶךְ בֹּטֵחַ בַּיהוָה וּבְחֶסֶד עֶלְיוֹן בַּל־יִמּֽוֹט׃ |
8 Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find all those who hate you.
| תִּמְצָא יָדְךָ לְכָל־אֹיְבֶיךָ יְמִֽינְךָ תִּמְצָא שֹׂנְאֶֽיךָ׃ |
9 You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. The LORD will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire shall devour them.
| תְּשִׁיתֵמוֹ ׀ כְּתַנּוּר אֵשׁ לְעֵת פָּנֶיךָ יְהוָה בְּאַפּוֹ יְבַלְּעֵם וְֽתֹאכְלֵם אֵֽשׁ׃ |
10 You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from among the descendants of Adam.
| פִּרְיָמוֹ מֵאֶרֶץ תְּאַבֵּד וְזַרְעָם מִבְּנֵי אָדָֽם׃ |
11 Though they intend evil against you, devising a wicked scheme, they will not succeed.
| כִּי־נָטוּ עָלֶיךָ רָעָה חָֽשְׁבוּ מְזִמָּה בַּל־יוּכָֽלוּ׃ |
12 For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.
| כִּי תְּשִׁיתֵמוֹ שֶׁכֶם בְּמֵֽיתָרֶיךָ תְּכוֹנֵן עַל־פְּנֵיהֶֽם׃ |
13 Be exalted, LORD, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.
| רוּמָה יְהוָה בְּעֻזֶּךָ נָשִׁירָה וּֽנְזַמְּרָה גְּבוּרָתֶֽךָ׃ |
