Psalms 21

1 ♥ 📝 F or the music director; a psalm of David. O LORD, the king rejoices in the strength you give; he takes great delight in the deliverance you provide.

2 ♥ 📝 You grant him his heart’s desire; you do not refuse his request.(Selah)

3 ♥ 📝 For you bring him rich blessings; you place a golden crown on his head.

4 ♥ 📝 He asked you to sustain his life, and you have granted him long life and an enduring dynasty.

5 ♥ 📝 Your deliverance brings him great honor; you give him majestic splendor.

6 ♥ 📝 For you grant him lasting blessings; you give him great joy by allowing him into your presence.

7 ♥ 📝 For the king trusts in the LORD, and because of the Most High’s faithfulness he is not shaken.

8 ♥ 📝 You prevail over all your enemies; your power is too great for those who hate you.

9 ♥ 📝 You burn them up like a fiery furnace when you appear; the LORD angrily devours them; the fire consumes them.

10 ♥ 📝 You destroy their offspring from the earth, their descendants from among the human race.

11 ♥ 📝 Yes, they intend to do you harm; they dream up a scheme, but they do not succeed.

12 ♥ 📝 For you make them retreat when you aim your arrows at them.

13 ♥ 📝 Rise up, O LORD, in strength! We will sing and praise your power!
