| ¶ | [[To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.]] The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice! | ||
| Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah. | |||
| For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head. | |||
| He asked life of thee, [and] thou gavest [it] him, [even] length of days for ever and ever. | |||
| His glory [is] great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him. | |||
| For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance. | |||
| For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved. | |||
| Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee. | |||
| 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. | |||
| Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men. | |||
| For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, [which] they are not able [to perform]. | |||
| Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, [when] thou shalt make ready [thine arrows] upon thy strings against the face of them. | |||
| Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: [so] will we sing and praise thy power. |
