For the end, a Psalm of David.
—
O Lord, the king shall rejoice in thy strength; and in thy salvation he shall greatly exult.
—
Thou hast granted him the desire of his soul, and hast not withheld from him the request of his lips. Pause.
—
For thou hast prevented him with blessings of goodness: thou hast set upon his head a crown of precious stone.
—
He asked life of thee, and thou gavest him length of days for ever and ever.
—
His glory is great in thy salvation: thou wilt crown him with glory and majesty.
—
For thou wilt give him a blessing for ever and ever: thou wilt gladden him with joy with thy countenance.
—
For the king trusts in the Lord, and through the mercy of the Highest he shall not be moved.
—
Let thy hand be found by all thine enemies: let thy right hand find all that hate thee.
—
Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven at the time of thy presence: the Lord shall trouble them in his anger, and fire shall devour them.
—
Thou shalt destroy their fruit from the earth, and their seed from [among] the sons of men.
—
For they intended evils against thee; they imagined a device which they shall by no means be able to perform.
—
For thou shalt make them [turn their] back in thy latter end, thou wilt prepare their face.
—
Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy strength: we will sing and praise thy mighty acts.
