תהילים 21

1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ יְֽהוָה בְּעָזְּךָ יִשְׂמַח־מֶלֶךְ וּבִישׁוּעָתְךָ מַה־יגיל יָּגֶל מְאֹֽד׃

For the music director. A psalm of David. The king celebrates your strength, Lord; he is so happy you made him victorious!

2 תַּאֲוַת לִבּוֹ נָתַתָּה לּוֹ וַאֲרֶשֶׁת שְׂפָתָיו בַּל־מָנַעְתָּ סֶּֽלָה׃

You gave him everything he wanted; you didn't hold anything back he asked for.

3 כִּֽי־תְקַדְּמֶנּוּ בִּרְכוֹת טוֹב תָּשִׁית לְרֹאשׁוֹ עֲטֶרֶת פָּֽז׃

You welcomed him on his return with special blessings; you placed a crown of pure gold on his head.

4 חַיִּים ׀ שָׁאַל מִמְּךָ נָתַתָּה לּוֹ אֹרֶךְ יָמִים עוֹלָם וָעֶֽד׃

He asked you to give him a good life, and you gave him a long life, forever and ever.

5 גָּדוֹל כְּבוֹדוֹ בִּישׁוּעָתֶךָ הוֹד וְהָדָר תְּשַׁוֶּה עָלָֽיו׃

Your victories brought him great glory; you granted him splendor and majesty.

6 כִּֽי־תְשִׁיתֵהוּ בְרָכוֹת לָעַד תְּחַדֵּהוּ בְשִׂמְחָה אֶת־פָּנֶֽיךָ׃

You give him blessings forever. He is full of joy because you are with him.

7 כִּֽי־הַמֶּלֶךְ בֹּטֵחַ בַּיהוָה וּבְחֶסֶד עֶלְיוֹן בַּל־יִמּֽוֹט׃

For the king trusts in the Lord; he stands firm because of the trustworthy love of the Most High.

8 תִּמְצָא יָדְךָ לְכָל־אֹיְבֶיךָ יְמִֽינְךָ תִּמְצָא שֹׂנְאֶֽיךָ׃

You, the king, will find and capture all your enemies; you will seize everyone who hates you.

9 תְּשִׁיתֵמוֹ ׀ כְּתַנּוּר אֵשׁ לְעֵת פָּנֶיךָ יְהוָה בְּאַפּוֹ יְבַלְּעֵם וְֽתֹאכְלֵם אֵֽשׁ׃

When you appear on the scene you will burn them up like in a furnace; the Lord in his anger will destroy them, burning them up with fire.

10 פִּרְיָמוֹ מֵאֶרֶץ תְּאַבֵּד וְזַרְעָם מִבְּנֵי אָדָֽם׃

You will wipe out their children from the earth, their descendants from humankind.

11 כִּי־נָטוּ עָלֶיךָ רָעָה חָֽשְׁבוּ מְזִמָּה בַּל־יוּכָֽלוּ׃

Though they plot evil against you, their malicious schemes will not succeed.

12 כִּי תְּשִׁיתֵמוֹ שֶׁכֶם בְּמֵֽיתָרֶיךָ תְּכוֹנֵן עַל־פְּנֵיהֶֽם׃

They will turn and run away when they see your arrows fired at them.

13 רוּמָה יְהוָה בְּעֻזֶּךָ נָשִׁירָה וּֽנְזַמְּרָה גְּבוּרָתֶֽךָ׃

Rise up, Lord, for you are strong! We will sing and praise your power!
