Salmos 21

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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