1 To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David.
2 \21:1\The king will be glad in your strength, O Lord; how great will be his delight in your salvation!
3 \21:2\You have given him his heart's desire, and have not kept back the request of his lips. (Selah.)
4 \21:3\For you go before him with the blessings of good things: you put a crown of fair gold on his head.
5 \21:4\He made request to you for life, and you gave it to him, long life for ever and ever.
6 \21:5\His glory is great in your salvation: honour and authority have you put on him.
7 \21:6\For you have made him a blessing for ever: you have given him joy in the light of your face.
8 \21:7\For the king has faith in the Lord, and through the mercy of the Most High he will not be moved.
9 \21:8\Your hand will make a search for all your haters; your right hand will be hard on all those who are against you.
10 \21:9\You will make them like a flaming oven before you; the Lord in his wrath will put an end to them, and they will be burned up in the fire.
11 \21:10\Their fruit will be cut off from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
12 \21:11\For their thoughts were bitter against you: they had an evil design in their minds, which they were not able to put into effect.
13 \21:12\Their backs will be turned when you make ready the cords of your bow against their faces.
14 \21:13\Be lifted up, O Lord, in your strength; so will we make songs in praise of your power.
1 耶和华啊! 王因你的力量快乐, 因你的救恩大大欢呼。
2 他心里所愿的, 你赐给了他; 他嘴唇所求的, 你没有拒绝。(细拉)
3 你以美福迎接他, 把精金的冠冕戴在他头上。
4 他向你求寿, 你就赐给他, 就是长久的日子, 直到永远。
5 他因你的救恩大有荣耀, 你又把尊荣和威严加给他。
6 你把永远的福分赐给他, 又使他因与你同在的喜乐欢欣。
7 王倚靠耶和华, 靠着至高者的慈爱, 他必不至动摇。
8 你的手要搜出你所有的仇敌, 你的右手必搜出那些恨你的人。
9 你出现的时候, 就要使他们像炽热的火炉; 耶和华必在他的震怒中吞灭他们, 火必烧灭他们。
10 你必从地上除灭他们的子孙, 从人间除灭他们的后裔。
11 虽然他们定下恶计害你, 他们所设的阴谋却不能成功。
12 你的箭扣上弦, 对准他们的脸的时候, 他们必转身而逃。
13 耶和华啊! 愿你因自己的能力被尊崇, 好让我们歌唱, 颂赞你的大能。
