PSALM 21

The LORD Gives the Desire of the Heart

A psalm to David.

1 O lord, [⁴in ⁵your power ³shall be glad ¹the ²king]; and over your deliverance he shall exult exceedingly. 2 The desire of his heart you gave to him; and the supplication of his lips you did not deprive him. 3 For you were [³beforehand ¹with ²him] in blessings of graciousness. You put upon his head a crown of [²stone ¹precious]. 4 [²life ¹He asked] of you, and you gave to him duration of days, into the eon of the eon. 5 [²is great ¹His glory] in your deliverance; glory and majesty you shall place upon him. 6 For you shall give to him a blessing into the eon of the eon; you shall gladden him with joy with your countenance. 7 For the king hopes upon the lord, and in the mercy of the highest in no way shall he be shaken. 8 May [²be found ¹your hand] by all your enemies; [²your right hand ¹may] be found by all the ones detesting you. 9 For you shall put them as an oven of fire in the time of your person; the lord in his anger disturbs them, and [²shall devour ³them ¹fire]. 10 [²their fruit ³from ⁴the earth ¹You shall destroy]; and their seed from the sons of men. 11 For they leaned [²to ³you ¹bad things], they argued over plans which in no way might they be able to establish. 12 For you shall put of them their back among your residue; you shall prepare their front. 13 Be raised up high, O lord, in your power! We shall sing and strum of your dominations.
