Salmos 21

1 Al Músico principal: Salmo de David. ALEGRARÁSE el rey en tu fortaleza, oh Jehová; y en tu salud se gozará mucho.

The king shall joy in thy strength, O Jehovah. And in thy salvation how greatly he shall rejoice!

2 El deseo de su corazón le diste, y no le negaste lo que sus labios pronunciaron. (Selah)

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

3 Pues le has salido al encuentro con bendiciones de bien: corona de oro fino has puesto sobre su cabeza.

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

4 Vida te demandó, [y] dístele largura de días por siglos y siglos.

He asked life from thee. Thou gave it him, even length of days forever and ever.

5 Grande es su gloria en tu salud: honra y majestad has puesto sobre él.

His glory is great in thy salvation. Honor and majesty thou do lay upon him.

6 Porque lo has bendecido para siempre; llenástelo de alegría con tu rostro.

For thou make him most blessed forever. Thou make him glad with joy in thy presence.

7 Por cuanto el rey confía en Jehová, y en la misericordia del Altísimo, no será conmovido.

For the king trusts in Jehovah. And through the loving kindness of the Most High he shall not be moved.

8 Alcanzará tu mano á todos tus enemigos; tu diestra alcanzará á los que te aborrecen.

Thy hand will find out all thine enemies. Thy right hand will find out those who hate thee.

9 Ponerlos has como horno de fuego en el tiempo de tu ira: Jehová los deshará en su furor, y fuego los consumirá.

Thou will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of thine anger. Jehovah will swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.

10 Su fruto destruirás de la tierra, y su simiente de entre los hijos de los hombres.

Thou will destroy their fruit from the earth, and their seed from among the sons of men.

11 Porque trazaron el mal contra ti: fraguaron maquinaciones, [mas] no prevalecerán.

For they intended evil against thee. They conceived a device which they are not able to perform.

12 Pues tú los pondrás en fuga, [cuando] aparejares en tus cuerdas [las saetas] contra sus rostros.

For thou will make them turn their back. Thou will make ready with thy bowstrings against their face.

13 Ensálzate, oh Jehová, con tu fortaleza: cantaremos y alabaremos tu poderío.

Be thou exalted, O Jehovah, in thy strength. We will sing and praise thy power.
