歌颂耶和华之救恩

21 大卫的诗,交于伶长。

耶和华啊,王必因你的能力欢喜,因你的救恩他的快乐何其大!
他心里所愿的,你已经赐给他;他嘴唇所求的,你未尝不应允。(细拉)
你以美福迎接他,把精金的冠冕戴在他头上。
他向你求寿,你便赐给他,就是日子长久,直到永远。
他因你的救恩大有荣耀,你又将尊荣威严加在他身上。
你使他有洪福,直到永远,又使他在你面前欢喜快乐。
王倚靠耶和华,因至高者的慈爱,必不摇动。
你的手要搜出你的一切仇敌,你的右手要搜出那些恨你的人。
你发怒的时候,要使他们如在炎热的火炉中。耶和华要在他的震怒中吞灭他们,那火要把他们烧尽了。
10 你必从世上灭绝他们的子孙[a],从人间灭绝他们的后裔。
11 因为他们有意加害于你,他们想出计谋,却不能做成。
12 你必使他们转背逃跑,向他们的脸搭箭在弦。
13 耶和华啊,愿你因自己的能力显为至高!这样,我们就唱诗,歌颂你的大能。

  1. 诗篇 21:10 “子孙”原文作“果子”。

Psalm 21

For the worship leader. A song of David.

The king is glad because You, O Eternal, are strong.
    In light of Your salvation, he is singing Your name.
You have given him all he could wish for.
    After hearing his prayer, You withheld nothing.

[pause][a]

True blessings You lavished upon the king;
    a crown of precious gold You placed upon his head.
His prayer was to live fully. You responded with even more—
    a never-ending life to enjoy.
With Your help, his fame and glory have grown;
    You raise him high and cover him in majesty.
You shower him with blessings that last forever;
    he finds joy in knowing Your presence and loving You.
For the king puts his trust in the Eternal,
    so he will not be shaken
    because of the persistent love of the Most High God.

King, your hand will reach for all your enemies;
    your right hand will seize all who hate you.
When you arrive at the battle’s edge,
    you will seem to them a furnace.
For the fire of the Eternal’s anger, the heat of His wrath
    will burn and consume them.
10 You will cut off their children,
    lop off the branches of their family tree.
The earth will never know them,
    nor will they ever be numbered among Adam’s kin.
11 When they scheme against you,
    when they conspire their mischief, such efforts will be in vain.
12 At the sight of you, they will sound the retreat;
    your bows, drawn back, will aim directly at their faces.

13 Put Your strength, Eternal One, on display for all to see;
    we will sing and make music of Your mighty power.
