To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David.
\
:
\The king will be glad in your strength, O Lord; how great will be his delight in your salvation!
\
:
\You have given him his heart's desire, and have not kept back the request of his lips. (Selah.)
\
:
\For you go before him with the blessings of good things: you put a crown of fair gold on his head.
\
:
\He made request to you for life, and you gave it to him, long life for ever and ever.
\
:
\His glory is great in your salvation: honour and authority have you put on him.
\
:
\For you have made him a blessing for ever: you have given him joy in the light of your face.
\
:
\For the king has faith in the Lord, and through the mercy of the Most High he will not be moved.
\
:
\Your hand will make a search for all your haters; your right hand will be hard on all those who are against you.
\
:
\You will make them like a flaming oven before you; the Lord in his wrath will put an end to them, and they will be burned up in the fire.
\
:
\Their fruit will be cut off from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
\
:
\For their thoughts were bitter against you: they had an evil design in their minds, which they were not able to put into effect.
\
:
\Their backs will be turned when you make ready the cords of your bow against their faces.
\
:
\Be lifted up, O Lord, in your strength; so will we make songs in praise of your power.
