Psalms 21

The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!

victori canticum David Domine in fortitudine tua laetabitur rex et in salutari tuo exultabit vehementer

Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.

desiderium cordis eius dedisti ei et voluntate labiorum eius non fraudasti eum semper

For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.

quoniam praevenies eum benedictionibus bonitatis pones in capite eius coronam de lapide pretioso

He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever.

vitam petivit te et dedisti ei longitudinem dierum in saeculum et in aeternum

His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.

magna gloria eius in salutari tuo gloriam et decorem pones super eum

For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.

pones enim eum benedictionem sempiternam et hilarabis eum laetitia apud vultum tuum

For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.

quia rex confidet in Domino et in misericordia Excelsi non decipietur

Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.

inveniet manus tua omnes inimicos tuos dextera tua inveniet odientes te

Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.

pones eos ut clibanum ignis in tempore vultus tui Dominus in furore suo praecipitabit eos et devorabit eos ignis

Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.

fructum eorum de terra perdes et semen eorum de filiis hominum

For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.

quoniam inclinaverunt super te malum cogitaverunt scelus quod non potuerunt

Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.

quia pones eos umerum funes tuos firmabis contra facies eorum

Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.

exaltare Domine in fortitudine tua cantabimus et psallemus fortitudines tuas
