21:1 For the director of music. A psalm of David. Lord, the king rejoices because of your strength; he is so happy when you save him!
21:2 You gave the king what he wanted and did not refuse what he asked for. Selah
21:3 You put good things before him and placed a gold crown on his head.
21:4 He asked you for life, and you gave it to him, so his years go on and on.
21:5 He has great glory because you gave him victories; you gave him honor and praise.
21:6 You always gave him blessings; you made him glad because you were with him.
21:7 The king truly trusts the Lord. Because God Most High always loves him, he will not be overwhelmed.
21:8 Your hand is against all your enemies; those who hate you will feel your power.
21:9 When you appear, you will burn them as in a furnace. In your anger you will swallow them up, and fire will burn them up.
21:10 You will destroy their families from the earth; their children will not live.
21:11 They made evil plans against you, but their traps won’t work.
21:12 You will make them turn their backs when you aim your arrows at them.
21:13 Be supreme, Lord, in your power. We sing and praise your greatness.
