¹ For 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!² Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah³ For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of fine gold on his head.⁴ He asked life of thee, thou gavest it him; even length of days for ever and ever.⁵ His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty dost thou lay upon him.⁶ For thou makest him most blessed for ever: thou makest him glad with joy in thy presence.

⁷ For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the lovingkindness of the Most High he shall not be moved.⁸ Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.⁹ Thou shalt make them as a fiery furnace in the time of thine anger. The LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.¹⁰ Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.¹¹ For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a device, which they are not able to perform.¹² For thou shalt make them turn their back, thou shalt make ready with thy bowstrings against the face of them.¹³ Be thou exalted, O LORD, in thy strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.
