21:1  How the king rejoices in your strength, O Lord! How he exults in your salvation.
21:2  For you have given him his heart’s desire, everything he asks you for!
21:3  You welcomed him to the throne with success and prosperity. You set a royal crown of solid gold upon his head.
21:4  He asked for a long, good life, and you have granted his request; the days of his life stretch on and on forever.
21:5  You have given him fame and honor. You have clothed him with splendor and majesty.
21:6  You have endowed him with eternal happiness. You have given him the unquenchable joy of your presence.
21:7  And because the king trusts in the Lord, he will never stumble, never fall; for he depends upon the steadfast love of the God who is above all gods.
21:8  Your hand, O Lord, will find your enemies, all who hate you.
21:9  When you appear, they will be destroyed in the fierce fire of your presence. The Lord will destroy them and their children.
21:10  When you appear, they will be destroyed in the fierce fire of your presence. The Lord will destroy them and their children.
21:11  For these men plot against you, Lord, but they cannot possibly succeed.
21:12  They will turn and flee when they see your arrows aimed straight at them.
21:13  Accept our praise, O Lord, for all your glorious power. We will write songs to celebrate your mighty acts!
