21:1  For the music director. A psalm of David. O Yahweh, the king will rejoice in your strength, and how greatly he will delight in your help.
21:2  You have given him the desire of his heart, and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah
21:3  For you meet him with blessings of good things. You set on his head a crown of fine gold.
21:4  He asked life from you; you gave it to him— length of days forever and ever.
21:5  His honor is great because of your help. Splendor and majesty you have bestowed upon him.
21:6  For you set on him blessings forever. You make him glad with the joy of your presence.
21:7  Because the king trusts Yahweh, and through the steadfast love of the Most High he shall not be moved.
21:8  Your hand will find all your enemies; your right hand will find those who hate you.
21:9  You will make them like your fiery furnace at the time of your appearance. Yahweh will swallow them in his wrath and fire will consume them.
21:10  You will destroy their offspring from the earth, and their descendants from among the children of humankind.
21:11  Though they have plotted evil against you, though they have planned a scheme, they will not prevail.
