| | 1 | To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David. The king shall have joy in Your strength, O LORD; And in Your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice! | |
| | 2 | You have given him his heart's desire, And have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah | |
| | 3 | For You meet him with the blessings of goodness; You set a crown of pure gold upon his head. | |
| | 4 | He asked life from You, and You gave it to him--Length of days forever and ever. | |
| | 5 | His glory is great in Your salvation; Honor and majesty You have placed upon him. | |
| | 6 | For You have made him most blessed forever; You have made him exceedingly glad with Your presence. | |
| | 7 | For the king trusts in the LORD, And through the mercy of the Most High he shall not be moved. | |
| | 8 | Your hand will find all Your enemies; Your right hand will find those who hate You. | |
| | 9 | You shall make them as a fiery oven in the time of Your anger; The LORD shall swallow them up in His wrath, And the fire shall devour them. | |
| | 10 | Their offspring You shall destroy from the earth, And their descendants from among the sons of men. | |
| | 11 | For they intended evil against You; They devised a plot which they are not able to perform. | |
| | 12 | Therefore You will make them turn their back; You will make ready Your arrows on Your string toward their faces. | |
| | 13 | Be exalted, O LORD, in Your own strength! We will sing and praise Your power. | |
