1To 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!⇆ compare2Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withheld the request of his lips. Selah.⇆ compare3For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.⇆ compare4He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days forever and ever.⇆ compare5His glory is great in thy salvation: honor and majesty hast thou laid upon him.⇆ compare6For thou hast made him most blessed forever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.⇆ compare7For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.⇆ compare8Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.⇆ compare9Thou 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.⇆ compare10Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.⇆ compare11For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.⇆ compare12Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.⇆ compare13Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.⇆ compare
