New Living Translation
Psalms • Chapter 21
1
How the king rejoices in your strength, O LORD!<br>He shouts with joy because you give him victory.<br>
2
For you have given him his heart’s desire;<br>you have withheld nothing he requested. <i>Interlude</i><br>
3
You welcomed him back with success and prosperity.<br>You placed a crown of finest gold on his head.<br>
4
He asked you to preserve his life,<br>and you granted his request.<br>The days of his life stretch on forever.<br>
5
Your victory brings him great honor,<br>and you have clothed him with splendor and majesty.<br>
6
You have endowed him with eternal blessings<br>and given him the joy of your presence.<br>
7
For the king trusts in the LORD.<br>The unfailing love of the Most High will keep him from stumbling.<br>
8
You will capture all your enemies.<br>Your strong right hand will seize all who hate you.<br>
9
You will throw them in a flaming furnace<br>when you appear.<br>The LORD will consume them in his anger;<br>fire will devour them.<br>
10
You will wipe their children from the face of the earth;<br>they will never have descendants.<br>
11
Although they plot against you,<br>their evil schemes will never succeed.<br>
12
For they will turn and run<br>when they see your arrows aimed at them.<br>
13
Rise up, O LORD, in all your power.<br>With music and singing we celebrate your mighty acts.<br>
