Psalm 21
Authorized (King James) Version
Psalm 21
To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.
1 The king shall joy in thy strength, O Lord;
and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
2 Thou hast given him his heart’s desire,
and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.
3 For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness:
thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.
4 He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him,
even length of days for ever and ever.
5 His glory is great in thy salvation:
honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.
6 For thou hast made him most blessed for ever:
thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.
7 For the king trusteth in the Lord,
and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
8 Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies:
thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.
9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger:
the Lord shall swallow them up in his wrath,
and the fire shall devour them.
10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth,
and their seed from among the children of men.
11 For they intended evil against thee:
they imagined a mischievous device,
which they are not able to perform.
12 Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back,
when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.
13 Be thou exalted, Lord, in thine own strength:
so will we sing and praise thy power.

Psalm 21
The King’s Victory
For the choir director. A psalm of David.
1 Lord, the king finds joy in your strength.
How greatly he rejoices in your victory!(A)
2 You have given him his heart’s desire(B)
and have not denied the request of his lips.(C)Selah
3 For you meet him with rich blessings;
you place a crown of pure gold on his head.(D)
4 He asked you for life, and you gave it to him—
length of days forever and ever.(E)
5 His glory is great through your victory;
you confer majesty and splendor on him.(F)
6 You give him blessings forever;(G)
you cheer him with joy in your presence.(H)
7 For the king relies on the Lord;
through the faithful love of the Most High
he is not shaken.(I)
8 Your hand will capture all your enemies;
your right hand will seize those who hate you.(J)
9 You will make them burn
like a fiery furnace when you appear;
the Lord will engulf them in his wrath,
and fire will devour them.(K)
10 You will wipe their progeny from the earth
and their offspring from the human race.[a](L)
11 Though they intend to harm[b] you
and devise a wicked plan, they will not prevail.(M)
12 Instead, you will put them to flight
when you ready your bowstrings to shoot at them.(N)
13 Be exalted, Lord, in your strength;
we will sing and praise your might.(O)
Salmos 21
Nueva Versión Internacional (Castilian)
Al director musical. Salmo de David.
21 En tu fuerza, Señor,
se regocija el rey;
¡cuánto se alegra en tus victorias!
2 Le has concedido lo que su corazón desea;
no le has negado lo que sus labios piden. Selah
3 Has salido a su encuentro con ricas bendiciones;
lo has coronado con diadema de oro fino.
4 Te pidió vida, se la concediste:
una vida larga y duradera.
5 Por tus victorias se acrecentó su gloria;
lo revestiste de honor y majestad.
6 Has hecho de él manantial de bendiciones;
tu presencia lo ha llenado de alegría.
7 El rey confía en el Señor,
en el gran amor del Altísimo;
por eso jamás caerá.
8 Tu mano alcanzará a todos tus enemigos;
tu diestra alcanzará a los que te aborrecen.
9 Cuando tú, Señor, te manifiestes,
los convertirás en un horno encendido.
En su ira los devorará el Señor;
¡un fuego los consumirá!
10 Borrarás de la tierra a su simiente;
de entre los mortales, a su posteridad.
11 Aunque tramen hacerte daño
y maquinen perversidades,
¡no se saldrán con la suya!
12 Porque tú los harás retroceder
cuando tenses tu arco contra ellos.
13 Enaltécete, Señor, con tu poder,
y con salmos celebraremos tus proezas.
