< Psalms 21 >

1 Yahweh, ([I], your king am glad/the king is glad) because you have caused me/him to be strong. (I rejoice/he rejoices) greatly because you have rescued me/him [from my/his enemies].
In finem, Psalmus David. Domine in virtute tua lætabitur rex: et super salutare tuum exultabit vehementer.
2 You have given me/him the things that I/he [SYN] desired and you have not refused to do what I requested you to do.
Desiderium cordis eius tribuisti ei: et voluntate labiorum eius non fraudasti eum.
3 In answer to my/his prayer, you enabled me/him to succeed and prosper. You placed a gold crown on my/his head.
Quoniam prævenisti eum in benedictionibus dulcedinis: posuisti in capite eius coronam de lapide pretioso.
4 I/He asked you to enable me/him to live [for a long time], and that is what you gave me/him, a very long [HYP] life.
Vitam petiit a te: et tribuisti ei longitudinem dierum in sæculum, et in sæculum sæculi.
5 (I am/He is) greatly honored because you have helped me/him to defeat my/his enemies; you have made me/him famous.
Magna est gloria eius in salutari tuo: gloriam et magnum decorem impones super eum.
6 You will bless me/him forever, and you have caused me/him to be joyful in your presence.
Quoniam dabis eum in benedictionem in sæculum sæculi: lætificabis eum in gaudio cum vultu tuo.
7 Yahweh, you are God Almighty, and (I trust/the king trusts) in you. Because you faithfully love me/him, disastrous things will never happen to me/him.
Quoniam rex sperat in Domino: et in misericordia Altissimi non commovebitur.
8 You will enable me/him to capture [MTY] all my/his enemies and all those who hate me/him.
Inveniatur manus tua omnibus inimicis tuis: dextera tua inveniat omnes, qui te oderunt.
9 When you appear, you will throw them into a fiery furnace. Because you are angry [with them], you will get rid of them; the fire will burn them up.
Pones eos ut clibanum ignis in tempore vultus tui: Dominus in ira sua conturbabit eos, et devorabit eos ignis.
10 You will remove their children from this earth; their descendants will all disappear.
Fructum eorum de terra perdes: et semen eorum a filiis hominum.
11 They planned to harm you, but what they plan will never succeed.
Quoniam declinaverunt in te mala; cogitaverunt consilia, quæ non potuerunt stabilire.
12 You will cause them to run away [IDM] by shooting arrows at them.
Quoniam pones eos dorsum: in reliquiis tuis præparabis vultum eorum.
13 Yahweh, show us that you are very strong! When you do that, while we sing we will praise you because you are very powerful.
Exaltare Domine in virtute tua: cantabimus et psallemus virtutes tuas.
