International Standard Version | New American Standard Bible 1995 |
1The king rejoices in your strength, LORD. How greatly he rejoices in your deliverance. | 1For the choir director. A Psalm of David. O LORD, in Your strength the king will be glad, And in Your salvation how greatly he will rejoice! |
2You have granted him the desire of his heart, and have not withheld what his lips requested. Interlude | 2You have given him his heart's desire, And You have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah. |
3You go before him with wonderful blessings, and put a crown of fine gold on his head. | 3For You meet him with the blessings of good things; You set a crown of fine gold on his head. |
4He asked life from you, and you gave it to him— a long life for ever and ever. | 4He asked life of You, You gave it to him, Length of days forever and ever. |
5His glory is great because of your deliverance, you have given him honor and majesty. | 5His glory is great through Your salvation, Splendor and majesty You place upon him. |
6Indeed, you have given him eternal blessings; you will make him glad with the joy of your presence. | 6For You make him most blessed forever; You make him joyful with gladness in Your presence. |
7The king trusts in the LORD; because of the gracious love of the Most High, he will stand firm. | 7For the king trusts in the LORD, And through the lovingkindness of the Most High he will not be shaken. |
8Your hand will find all your enemies, your right hand will find those who hate you. | 8Your hand will find out all your enemies; Your right hand will find out those who hate you. |
9When you appear, you will set them ablaze like a fire furnace. In his wrath, the LORD will consume them, and the fire will devour them. | 9You will make them as a fiery oven in the time of your anger; The LORD will swallow them up in His wrath, And fire will devour them. |
10You will destroy their descendants from the earth, even their offspring from the ranks of mankind. | 10Their offspring You will destroy from the earth, And their descendants from among the sons of men. |
11Though they plot evil against you and devise schemes, they will not succeed. | 11Though they intended evil against You And devised a plot, They will not succeed. |
12Indeed, you will make them retreat, when you aim your bow at their faces. | 12For You will make them turn their back; You will aim with Your bowstrings at their faces. |
13Rise up, LORD, because you are strong; we will sing and praise your power. | 13Be exalted, O LORD, in Your strength; We will sing and praise Your power. |
