21 The king shall rejoice in Your strength, O LORD. Indeed, how greatly shall he rejoice in Your salvation!

You have given him his heart’s desire and have not denied the request of his lips. Selah.

For You meet him with liberal blessings and set a crown of pure gold upon his head.

He asked life of You, and You gave him a long life forever and ever.

His glory is great in Your salvation. Dignity and honor You have laid upon him.

For You have set him as most blessed forever. You have made him glad with the joy of Your countenance.

Because the king trusts in the LORD, and in the mercy of the Most High, he shall not slide.

Your hand shall find out all Your enemies. And Your right hand shall find out those who hate You.

You shall make them like a fiery oven in time of Your anger. The LORD shall destroy them in His wrath. And the fire shall devour them.

10 You shall destroy their fruit from the Earth, and their seed from the children of men.

11 For they intended evil against You and imagined mischief. But they shall not prevail.

12 Therefore, You shall make them turn their back. And You shall make ready the strings of Your bow against their faces.

13 Be exalted, O LORD, in Your strength. So, will we sing and praise Your power. To him who excels upon Aijeleth Hashahar: A Psalm of David.
