Psalm 21

New International Version NIV

1 The king rejoices in your strength, LORD. How great is his joy in the victories you give!

2 You have granted him his heart’s desire and have not withheld the request of his lips.

3 You came to greet him with rich blessings and placed a crown of pure gold on his head.

4 He asked you for life, and you gave it to him— length of days, for ever and ever.

5 Through the victories you gave, his glory is great; you have bestowed on him splendor and majesty.

6 Surely you have granted him unending blessings and made him glad with the joy of your presence.

7 For the king trusts in the LORD; through the unfailing love of the Most High he will not be shaken.

8 Your hand will lay hold on all your enemies; your right hand will seize your foes.

9 When you appear for battle, you will burn them up as in a blazing furnace. The LORD will swallow them up in his wrath, and his fire will consume them.

10 You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from mankind.

11 Though they plot evil against you and devise wicked schemes, they cannot succeed.

12 You will make them turn their backs when you aim at them with drawn bow.

13 Be exalted in your strength, LORD; we will sing and praise your might.

The Darby Translation DBY

1 {To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David.} The king shall joy in thy strength, Jehovah; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice.

2 Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.

3 For thou hast met him with the blessings of goodness; thou hast set a crown of pure gold on his head.

4 He asked life of thee; thou gavest [it] him, length of days for ever and ever.

5 His glory is great through thy salvation; majesty and splendour hast thou laid upon him.

6 For thou hast made him to be blessings for ever; thou hast filled him with joy by thy countenance.

7 For the king confideth in Jehovah: and through the loving-kindness of the Most High he shall not be moved.

8 Thy hand shall find out all thine enemies; thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.

9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery furnace in the time of thy presence; Jehovah shall swallow them up in his anger, and the fire shall devour them:

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

11 For they intended evil against thee; they imagined a mischievous device, which they could not execute.

12 For thou wilt make them turn their back; thou wilt make ready thy bowstring against their face.

13 Be thou exalted, Jehovah, in thine own strength: we will sing and celebrate thy power.
