Salmos 21
1 Jehová, en tu fortaleza se alegrará el rey; y en tu salud se regocijará mucho.
For the music director. A psalm of David. The king celebrates your strength, Lord; he is so happy you made him victorious!
2 El deseo de su corazón le diste; y no le negaste lo que sus labios pronunciaron. (Selah)
You gave him everything he wanted; you didn't hold anything back he asked for.
3 Por tanto le adelantarás en bendiciones de bien: corona de oro fino has puesto sobre su cabeza.
You welcomed him on his return with special blessings; you placed a crown of pure gold on his head.
4 Vida te demandó, se la diste: longura de días, por siglo y siglo.
He asked you to give him a good life, and you gave him a long life, forever and ever.
5 Grande es su gloria en tu salud: honra y hermosura has puesto sobre él.
Your victories brought him great glory; you granted him splendor and majesty.
6 Porque le has bendecido para siempre: alegrástele de alegría con tu rostro.
You give him blessings forever. He is full of joy because you are with him.
7 Por cuanto el rey confía en Jehová: y en la misericordia del Altísimo no titubeará.
For the king trusts in the Lord; he stands firm because of the trustworthy love of the Most High.
8 Alcanzará tu mano a todos tus enemigos: tu diestra alcanzará a los que te aborrecen.
You, the king, will find and capture all your enemies; you will seize everyone who hates you.
9 Ponerlos has como horno de fuego en el tiempo de tu ira: Jehová los deshará en su furor, y fuego los consumirá.
When you appear on the scene you will burn them up like in a furnace; the Lord in his anger will destroy them, burning them up with fire.
10 Su fruto destruirás de la tierra: y su simiente de entre los hijos de los hombres.
You will wipe out their children from the earth, their descendants from humankind.
11 Porque tendieron mal contra ti: maquinaron maquinación, mas no prevalecieron.
Though they plot evil against you, their malicious schemes will not succeed.
12 Por tanto ponerlos has a parte: con tus cuerdas apuntarás a sus rostros.
They will turn and run away when they see your arrows fired at them.
13 Ensálzate, o! Jehová, con tu fortaleza: cantaremos y alabaremos tu valentía.
Rise up, Lord, for you are strong! We will sing and praise your power!
