Bible, King James Version
Psalms
Pss.21
[1] The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; 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 preventest him with the blessings of
goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.
[4] He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even
length of days for ever and ever.
[5] His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and
majesty hast thou laid upon him.
[6] For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou
hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.
[7] For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the
mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
[8] Thine 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 oven in the time of
thine anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, 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 are not able to perform.
[12] Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when
thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the
face of them.
[13] Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will
we sing and praise thy power.
