[1] The king shall have 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 meet him with the blessings of goodness; You set a crown of pure gold upon his head.

[4] He asked life from You, and You gave it to him— Length of days forever and ever.

[5] His glory is great in Your salvation; Honor and majesty You have placed upon him.

[6] For You have made him most blessed forever; You have made him exceedingly glad with Your presence.

[7] For the king trusts in the Lord, And through the mercy of the Most High he shall not be moved.

[8] Your hand will find all Your enemies; Your right hand will find those who 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 offspring You shall destroy from the earth, And their descendants from among the sons of men.

[11] For they intended evil against You; They devised a plot which they are not able to perform.

[12] Therefore You will make them turn their back; You will make ready Your arrows on Your string toward their faces.

[13] Be exalted, O Lord, in Your own strength! We will sing and praise Your power.
