Salmos 21

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

Unto the end. A psalm for David. In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.

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

Thou hast given him his heart’s desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.

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

For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.

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

He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.

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

His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.

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

For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.

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

For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy 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.

Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that 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 shalt make them as an oven of fire, in the time of thy anger: the Lord shall trouble them in his wrath, and fire shall devour them.

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

Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth: and their seed from among the children of men.

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

For they have intended evils against thee: they have devised counsels which they have not been able to establish.

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

For thou shalt make them turn their back: in thy remnants thou shalt prepare their face.

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

Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy own strength: we will sing and praise thy power.
