Psalmorum 21
1 in finem psalmus David Domine in virtute tua laetabitur rex et super salutare tuum exultabit vehementer
To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The King shall reioyce in thy strength, O Lord: yea how greatly shall he reioyce in thy saluation!
2 desiderium animae eius tribuisti ei et voluntate labiorum eius non fraudasti eum diapsalma
Thou hast giuen him his hearts desire, and hast not denyed him the request of his lips. (Selah)
3 quoniam praevenisti eum in benedictionibus dulcedinis posuisti in capite eius coronam de lapide pretioso
For thou diddest preuent him with liberall blessings, and didest set a crowne of pure gold vpon his head.
4 vitam petiit a te et tribuisti ei longitudinem dierum in saeculum et in saeculum saeculi
He asked life of thee, and thou gauest him a long life for euer and euer.
5 magna gloria eius in salutari tuo gloriam et magnum decorem inpones super eum
His glory is great in thy saluation: dignitie and honour hast thou laid vpon him.
6 quoniam dabis eum benedictionem in saeculum saeculi laetificabis eum in gaudio cum vultu tuo
For thou hast set him as blessings for euer: thou hast made him glad with the ioy of thy countenance.
7 quoniam rex sperat in Domino et in misericordia Altissimi non commovebitur
Because the King trusteth in the Lord, and in the mercie of the most High, he shall not slide.
8 inveniatur manus tua omnibus inimicis tuis dextera tua inveniat omnes qui te oderunt
Thine hand shall finde out all thine enemies, and thy right hand shall finde out them that hate thee.
9 pones eos ut clibanum ignis in tempore vultus tui Dominus in ira sua conturbabit eos et devorabit eos ignis
Thou shalt make them like a fierie ouen in time of thine anger: the Lord shall destroy them in his wrath, and the fire shall deuoure them.
10 fructum eorum de terra perdes et semen eorum a filiis hominum
Their fruite shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seede from the children of men.
11 quoniam declinaverunt in te mala cogitaverunt consilia quae non potuerunt stabilire
For they intended euill against thee, and imagined mischiefe, but they shall not preuaile.
12 quoniam pones eos dorsum in reliquis tuis praeparabis vultum eorum
Therefore shalt thou put them aparte, and the strings of thy bowe shalt thou make readie against their faces.
13 exaltare Domine in virtute tua cantabimus et psallemus virtutes tuas
Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy strength: so will we sing and prayse thy power.
