The King Rejoices in the Lord's Strength

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

21 O Lord, in your (A)strength the king rejoices,
    and in your (B)salvation how greatly he exults!
You have (C)given him his heart's desire
    and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah
For you (D)meet him with rich blessings;
    you set (E)a crown of (F)fine gold upon his head.
He asked life of you; you (G)gave it to him,
    (H)length of days for ever and ever.
His (I)glory is great through your salvation;
    (J)splendour and majesty you bestow on him.
For you make him most blessed for ever;[a]
    you make him glad with the (K)joy of your presence.
