| 1How the king rejoices in your strength, O LORD! He shouts with joy because you give him victory. | 1LORD, the king finds joy in your strength. How greatly he rejoices in your victory! |
| 2For you have given him his heart’s desire; you have withheld nothing he requested. Interlude | 2You have given him his heart's desire and have not denied the request of his lips. Selah |
| 3You welcomed him back with success and prosperity. You placed a crown of finest gold on his head. | 3For you meet him with rich blessings; you place a crown of pure gold on his head. |
| 4He asked you to preserve his life, and you granted his request. The days of his life stretch on forever. | 4He asked you for life, and you gave it to him--length of days forever and ever. |
| 5Your victory brings him great honor, and you have clothed him with splendor and majesty. | 5His glory is great through your victory; you confer majesty and splendor on him. |
| 6You have endowed him with eternal blessings and given him the joy of your presence. | 6You give him blessings forever; you cheer him with joy in your presence. |
| 7For the king trusts in the LORD. The unfailing love of the Most High will keep him from stumbling. | 7For the king relies on the LORD; through the faithful love of the Most High he is not shaken. |
| 8You will capture all your enemies. Your strong right hand will seize all who hate you. | 8Your hand will capture all your enemies; your right hand will seize those who hate you. |
| 9You will throw them in a flaming furnace when you appear. The LORD will consume them in his anger; fire will devour them. | 9You will make them burn like a fiery furnace when you appear; the LORD will engulf them in his wrath, and fire will devour them. |
| 10You will wipe their children from the face of the earth; they will never have descendants. | 10You will wipe their progeny from the earth and their offspring from the human race. |
| 11Although they plot against you, their evil schemes will never succeed. | 11Though they intend to harm you and devise a wicked plan, they will not prevail. |
| 12For they will turn and run when they see your arrows aimed at them. | 12Instead, you will put them to flight when you ready your bowstrings to shoot at them. |
| 13Rise up, O LORD, in all your power. With music and singing we celebrate your mighty acts. | 13Be exalted, LORD, in your strength; we will sing and praise your might. |
