Salmos 21

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

The king shall joy in your strength, O LORD; and in your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!

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 prevent him with the blessings of goodness: you set a crown of pure 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 him, even 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 your salvation: honor and majesty have you laid on him.

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

For you have made him most blessed for ever: you have made him exceeding glad with your 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 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 shall find out all your enemies: your right hand shall find out those that 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 shall make them as a fiery oven in the time of your anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.

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

Their fruit shall you destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.

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

For they intended evil against you: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.

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

Therefore shall you make them turn their back, when you shall make ready your arrows on your strings against the face of them.

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

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