21. Triumph of the King
Psa 21:1
<To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.> The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!Psa 21:2
Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.Psa 21:3
For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.Psa 21:4
He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever.Psa 21:5
His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.Psa 21:6
For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.Psa 21:7
For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.Psa 21:8
Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.Psa 21:9
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.Psa 21:10
Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.Psa 21:11
For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.Psa 21:12
Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.Psa 21:13
Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.
