This is a song that David wrote for the music leader.

We thank God for his help[a]

21 Lord, the king is happy,
    because you help him with your great strength.
You have helped him to win against his enemies,
    so he is very happy.[b]
You have given to him all the things
    that he really wanted.
When he asked for them,
    you have not refused to give them to him.
Selah.
You came to him,
    and you blessed him with many good things:
You put a crown on his head.
    It was made from the best gold.
