Psalms 21

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

Al Músico principal: Salmo de David. ALEGRARÁSE el rey en tu fortaleza, oh Jehová; y en tu salud se gozará mucho.

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

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

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

Pues le has salido al encuentro con bendiciones de bien: corona de oro fino has puesto sobre su cabeza.

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

Vida te demandó, [y] dístele largura de días por siglos y siglos.

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

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

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

Porque lo has bendecido para siempre; llenástelo de alegría con tu rostro.

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

Por cuanto el rey confía en Jehová, y en la misericordia del Altísimo, no será conmovido.

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

Alcanzará tu mano á todos tus enemigos; tu diestra alcanzará á los que te aborrecen.

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

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

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

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

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

Porque trazaron el mal contra ti: fraguaron maquinaciones, [mas] no prevalecerán.

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

Pues tú los pondrás en fuga, [cuando] aparejares en tus cuerdas [las saetas] contra sus rostros.

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

Ensálzate, oh Jehová, con tu fortaleza: cantaremos y alabaremos tu poderío.
