21 (For the one directing. Mizmor Dovid) Melech shall have simcha in Thy strength, Hashem; and in Thy Yeshuah (salvation) how greatly shall he rejoice!

^2 (3) Thou hast given him the desire of his lev, and hast not withheld the request of his lips. Selah.

^3 (4) For Thou meeteth him with the birkhot tov; Thou settest an ateret of pure gold on his head.

^4 (5) He asked Chayyim of Thee, and Thou gavest it him, even length of yamim olam va’ed [see 1C 15:4; Ps 16:10];

^5 (6) Gadol is his kavod in Thy Yeshuah (salvation); hod v’hadar hast Thou bestowed upon him.

^6 (7) For Thou hast made him birkhot forever; Thou hast made him exceeding glad with simcha in Thy presence.

^7 (8) For HaMelech trusteth in Hashem, and through the chesed of Elyon he shall not be moved.

^8 (9) Thine yad shall find out all thine enemies; thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.

^9 (10) Thou shalt make them like an oven of eish in the time of thine presence; Hashem shall swallow them up in His wrath, and the eish shall devour them.

^10 (11) Their fruit shalt Thou destroy from ha’aretz, and their zera from among Bnei Adam.

^11 (12) For they intended ra’ah against Thee; they devised a plot, which they are not able to perform.

^12 (13) Ki (therefore) shalt Thou make them turn their backs, when Thou shalt aim Thine bowstrings at their faces.

^13 (14) Be Thou exalted, Hashem, in Thine Own Strength; so will we sing and praise Thy gevurah (power).
