Psalms 21

1 For the chief musician. A psalm of David. The king rejoices in your strength, Yahweh! How greatly he rejoices in the salvation you provide!

大卫的诗，交与伶长。 耶和华啊，王必因你的能力欢喜； 因你的救恩，他的快乐何其大！

2 You have given him his heart's desire and have not held back the request of his lips. (Selah)

他心里所愿的，你已经赐给他； 他嘴唇所求的，你未尝不应允。 (细拉)

3 For you bring him rich blessings; you placed on his head a crown of purest gold.

你以美福迎接他， 把精金的冠冕戴在他头上。

4 He asked you for life; you gave it to him; you gave him long days forever and ever.

他向你求寿，你便赐给他， 就是日子长久，直到永远。

5 His glory is great because of your victory; you have bestowed on him splendor and majesty.

他因你的救恩大有荣耀； 你又将尊荣威严加在他身上。

6 For you grant him lasting blessings; you make him glad with the joy of your presence.

你使他有洪福，直到永远， 又使他在你面前欢喜快乐。

7 For the king trusts in Yahweh; through the covenant faithfulness of the Most High he will not be moved.

王倚靠耶和华， 因至高者的慈爱必不摇动。

8 Your hand will seize all your enemies; your right hand will seize those who hate you.

你的手要搜出你的一切仇敌； 你的右手要搜出那些恨你的人。

9 At the time of your anger, you will burn them up as in a fiery furnace. Yahweh will consume them in his wrath, and the fire will devour them.

你发怒的时候，要使他们如在炎热的火炉中。 耶和华要在他的震怒中吞灭他们； 那火要把他们烧尽了。

10 You will destroy their offspring from the earth and their descendants from among the human race.

你必从世上灭绝他们的子孙， 从人间灭绝他们的后裔。

11 For they intended evil against you; they conceived a plot with which they will not succeed!

因为他们有意加害于你； 他们想出计谋，却不能作成。

12 For you will turn them back; you will draw your bow before them.

你必使他们转背逃跑， 向他们的脸搭箭在弦。

13 Be exalted, Yahweh, in your strength; we will sing and praise your power.

耶和华啊，愿你因自己的能力显为至高！ 这样，我们就唱诗，歌颂你的大能。
