< Psalms 21 >
1 To the choirmaster a psalm of David. O Yahweh in strength your he rejoices [the] king and in deliverance your how! (he exults *Q(k)*) exceedingly.
“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” The king rejoiceth in thy strength, O LORD! Yea, he doth greatly exult in thy protection.
2 [the] desire of Heart his you have given to him and [the] request of lips his not you have withheld (Selah)
Thou hast given him his heart's desire, And hast not denied him the request of his lips. (Pause)
3 For you meet him blessings of good thing[s] you set to head his a crown of pure gold.
Yea, thou hast met him with rich blessings, Thou hast placed a crown of pure gold upon his head.
4 Life - he asked from you you gave [it] to him length of days forever and ever.
He asked life of thee; thou gavest it him; Even long life, enduring for ever.
5 [is] great Honor his by victory your splendor and majesty you place on him.
Great is his glory through thine aid; Honor and majesty hast thou laid upon him.
6 For you give him blessings for ever you make rejoice him with gladness with presence your.
Thou hast made him blessed for evermore; Thou hast made him glad with the joy of thy countenance.
7 For the king [is] trusting in Yahweh and in [the] covenant loyalty of [the] Most High not he will be shaken.
For the king trusteth in the LORD; And through the goodness of the Most High he shall never fall.
8 It will find hand your all enemies your right [hand] your it will find [those who] hate you.
Thy hand shall overtake all thine enemies; Thy right hand shall overtake them that hate thee.
9 You will make them - like a furnace of fire to [the] time of presence your Yahweh in anger his he will swallow up them and it will consume them fire.
Thou wilt make them like a burning oven in the time of thine anger; Jehovah shall swallow them up in his wrath, And the fire shall devour them.
10 Descendant[s] their from [the] earth you will destroy and offspring their from [the] children of humankind.
Their offspring shalt thou destroy from the earth, And their posterity from the sons of men.
11 For they have extended on you harm they have planned a scheme not they will succeed.
For they spread a net of mischief against thee; They devised plots against thee, but they did not prevail.
12 For you will make them a shoulder on bowstrings your you will prepare on faces their.
Therefore thou wilt cause them to turn their backs; Thou wilt make ready thine arrows upon the strings against them.
13 Rise up! O Yahweh (in strength your *LA(bh)*) we will sing and we will sing praises might your.
Exalt thyself, O LORD! by thy strength! So will we sing, and praise thy mighty deeds.
