New Living Translation | English Standard Version |
1How the king rejoices in your strength, O LORD! He shouts with joy because you give him victory. | 1O LORD, in your strength the king rejoices, and in your salvation how greatly he exults! |
2For you have given him his heart’s desire; you have withheld nothing he requested. Interlude | 2You have given him his heart’s desire and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah |
3You welcomed him back with success and prosperity. You placed a crown of finest gold on his head. | 3For you meet him with rich blessings; you set a crown of fine gold upon his head. |
4He asked you to preserve his life, and you granted his request. The days of his life stretch on forever. | 4He asked life of you; you gave it to him, length of days forever and ever. |
5Your victory brings him great honor, and you have clothed him with splendor and majesty. | 5His glory is great through your salvation; splendor and majesty you bestow on him. |
6You have endowed him with eternal blessings and given him the joy of your presence. | 6For you make him most blessed forever; you make him glad with the joy of your presence. |
7For the king trusts in the LORD. The unfailing love of the Most High will keep him from stumbling. | 7For the king trusts in the LORD, and through the steadfast love of the Most High he shall not be moved. |
8You will capture all your enemies. Your strong right hand will seize all who hate you. | 8Your hand will find out all your enemies; your right hand will find out those who hate you. |
9You will throw them in a flaming furnace when you appear. The LORD will consume them in his anger; fire will devour them. | 9You will make them as a blazing oven when you appear. The LORD will swallow them up in his wrath, and fire will consume them. |
10You will wipe their children from the face of the earth; they will never have descendants. | 10You will destroy their descendants from the earth, and their offspring from among the children of man. |
11Although they plot against you, their evil schemes will never succeed. | 11Though they plan evil against you, though they devise mischief, they will not succeed. |
12For they will turn and run when they see your arrows aimed at them. | 12For you will put them to flight; you will aim at their faces with your bows. |
13Rise up, O LORD, in all your power. With music and singing we celebrate your mighty acts. | 13Be exalted, O LORD, in your strength! We will sing and praise your power. |
