Psalmen - Kapitel 21 Kap. 21 - Psalmen

^[1]  The king shall joy in your strength, O LORD; and in your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!

^[2]  You have given him his heart’s desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah.

^[3]  For you prevent him with the blessings of goodness: you set a crown of pure gold on his head.

^[4]  He asked life of you, and you gave it him, even length of days for ever and ever.

^[5]  His glory is great in your salvation: honor and majesty have you laid on him.

^[6]  For you have made him most blessed for ever: you have made him exceeding glad with your countenance.

^[7]  For the king trusts in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.

^[8]  Your hand shall find out all your enemies: your right hand shall find out those that hate you.

^[9]  You shall make them as a fiery oven in the time of your anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.

^[10]  Their fruit shall you destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.

^[11]  For they intended evil against you: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.

^[12]  Therefore shall you make them turn their back, when you shall make ready your arrows on your strings against the face of them.

^[13]  Be you exalted, LORD, in your own strength: so will we sing and praise your power.
