Psalms 21

1 For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. The king rejoices in your strength, Yahweh! How greatly he rejoices in your salvation!

伶長にうたはしめたるダビデのうた ヱホバよ王はなんぢの力によりてたのしみ汝のすくひによりて奈何におほいなる歓喜をなさん

2 You have given him his heart’s desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. (Selah)

なんぢ彼がこころの願望をゆるし そのくちびるの求をいなみ給はざりき (セラ)

3 For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.

そはよきたまものの恵をもてかれを迎へ まじりなきこがねの冕弁をもてかれの首にいただかせ給ひたり

4 He asked life of you and you gave it to him, even length of days forever and ever.

かれ生命をもとめしに汝これをあたへてその齢の日を世々かぎりなからしめ給へり

5 His glory is great in your salvation. You lay honor and majesty on him.

なんぢの救によりてその榮光おほいなり なんぢは尊貴と稜威とをかれに衣せたまふ

6 For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad with joy in your presence.

そは之をとこしへに福ひなるものとなし聖顔のまへの歓喜をもて樂しませたまへばなり

7 For the king trusts in Yahweh. Through the loving kindness of the Most High, he shall not be moved.

王はヱホバに依頼み いとたかき者のいつくしみを蒙るがゆゑに動かさるることなからん

8 Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find out those who hate you.

なんぢの手はそのもろもろの仇をたづねいだし 汝のみぎの手はおのれを憎むものを探ねいだすべし

9 You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. Yahweh will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire shall devour them.

なんぢ怒るときは彼等をもゆる爐のごとくにせんヱホバはげしき怒によりてかれらを呑たまはん 火はかれらを食つくさん

10 You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from among the children of men.

汝かれらの裔を地よりほろぼし かれらの種を人の子のなかよりほろぼさん

11 For they intended evil against you. They plotted evil against you which cannot succeed.

かれらは汝にむかひて惡事をくはだて遂がたき謀略をおもひまはせばなり

12 For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.

汝かれらをして背をむけしめ その面にむかひて弓絃をひかん

13 Be exalted, Yahweh, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.

ヱホバよ能力をあらはしてみづからを高くしたまへ 我儕はなんぢの稜威をうたひ且ほめたたへん
