Mazmur 21

1 Untuk pemimpin kor. Mazmur Daud. Ya TUHAN, raja bergembira karena Engkau telah menguatkan dia; ia bersukacita karena kemenangan yang Kauberi kepadanya!

For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. The king rejoices in your strength, LORD! How greatly he rejoices in your salvation!

2 Engkau telah memenuhi keinginan hatinya, dan memberi apa yang dimintanya.

You have given him his heart’s desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. (Selah)

3 Engkau datang kepadanya dengan berkat berlimpah, dan memasang mahkota emas di atas kepalanya.

For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.

4 Ia mohon hidup, dan Kauberikan kepadanya, bahkan umur panjang untuk selama-lamanya.

He asked life of you and you gave it to him, even length of days forever and ever.

5 Karena pertolongan-Mu ia menjadi sangat terhormat, Kaujadikan dia masyhur dan bersemarak.

His glory is great in your salvation. You lay honour and majesty on him.

6 Kauberkati dia untuk seterusnya; kehadiran-Mu membuat ia penuh sukacita.

For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad with joy in your presence.

7 Raja berharap kepada TUHAN Yang Mahatinggi, ia selalu aman sebab tetap dikasihi TUHAN.

For the king trusts in the LORD. Through the loving kindness of the Most High, he shall not be moved.

8 Ia akan menawan semua musuhnya, dan menangkap semua orang yang membenci Dia.

Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find out those who hate you.

9 Ia datang seperti api yang menyala-nyala untuk membinasakan mereka. Mereka akan dimusnahkan oleh kemarahan TUHAN, dan oleh api yang menghanguskan.

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.

10 Dari keturunan mereka tak ada yang tersisa, raja akan menumpas mereka semua.

You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from amongst the children of men.

11 Apabila mereka membuat rencana menentang raja, tipu muslihat mereka tak akan berhasil.

For they intended evil against you. They plotted evil against you which cannot succeed.

12 Ia akan membidikkan panah-Nya, sehingga mereka berbalik dan lari.

For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.

13 Kami memuji Engkau TUHAN, sebab besarlah kuasa-Mu, kami menyanyi memuji keperkasaan-Mu.

Be exalted, LORD, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.
