Psalms 21 : 1 - 13
Chapter 21
1 | The king shall have joy in Your strength, O LORD; And in Your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
|
2 | You have given him his heart's desire, And have not withheld the request of his lips.Selah
|
3 | For You meet him with the blessings of goodness; You set a crown of pure gold upon his head.
|
4 | He asked life from You, and You gave it to him--Length of days forever and ever.
|
5 | His glory is great in Your salvation; Honor and majesty You have placed upon him.
|
6 | For You have made him most blessed forever; You have made him exceedingly glad with Your presence.
|
7 | For the king trusts in the LORD, And through the mercy of the Most High he shall not be moved.
|
8 | Your hand will find all Your enemies; Your right hand will find those who hate You.
|
9 | You shall make them as a fiery oven in the time of Your anger; The LORD shall swallow them up in His wrath, And the fire shall devour them.
|
10 | Their offspring You shall destroy from the earth, And their descendants from among the sons of men.
|
11 | For they intended evil against You; They devised a plot which they are not able to perform.
|
12 | Therefore You will make them turn their back; You will make ready Your arrows on Your string toward their faces.
|
13 | Be exalted, O LORD, in Your own strength! We will sing and praise Your power.
