Salmos 21

1 Jehová, en tu fortaleza se alegrará el rey; y en tu salud se regocijará mucho.

For the end, a Psalm of David. O Lord, the king shall rejoice in thy strength; and in thy salvation he shall greatly exult.

2 El deseo de su corazón le diste; y no le negaste lo que sus labios pronunciaron. (Selah)

Thou hast granted him the desire of his soul, and hast not withheld from him the request of his lips. (Pause)

3 Por tanto le adelantarás en bendiciones de bien: corona de oro fino has puesto sobre su cabeza.

For thou hast prevented him with blessings of goodness: thou has set upon his head a crown of precious stone.

4 Vida te demandó, se la diste: longura de días, por siglo y siglo.

He asked life of thee, and thou gavest him length of days for ever and ever.

5 Grande es su gloria en tu salud: honra y hermosura has puesto sobre él.

His glory is great in thy salvation: thou wilt crown him with glory and majesty.

6 Porque le has bendecido para siempre: alegrástele de alegría con tu rostro.

For thou wilt give him a blessing for ever and ever: thou wilt gladden him with joy with thy countenance.

7 Por cuanto el rey confía en Jehová: y en la misericordia del Altísimo no titubeará.

For the king trusts in the Lord, and through the mercy of the Highest he shall not be moved.

8 Alcanzará tu mano a todos tus enemigos: tu diestra alcanzará a los que te aborrecen.

Let thy hand be found by all thine enemies: let thy right hand find all that hate thee.

9 Ponerlos has como horno de fuego en el tiempo de tu ira: Jehová los deshará en su furor, y fuego los consumirá.

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.

10 Su fruto destruirás de la tierra: y su simiente de entre los hijos de los hombres.

Thou shalt destroy their fruit from the earth, and their seed from [among] the sons of men.

11 Porque tendieron mal contra ti: maquinaron maquinación, mas no prevalecieron.

For they intended evils against thee; they imagined a device which they shall by no means be able to perform.

12 Por tanto ponerlos has a parte: con tus cuerdas apuntarás a sus rostros.

For thou shalt make them [turn their] back in thy latter end, thou wilt prepare their face.

13 Ensálzate, o! Jehová, con tu fortaleza: cantaremos y alabaremos tu valentía.

Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy strength: we will sing and praise thy mighty acts.
