Alabanza por la liberación
Para el director del coro. Salmo de David.
21 Oh Señor, en tu fortaleza se alegrará el rey(A),
¡y cuánto se regocijará en tu salvación[a]!
2 Tú le has dado el deseo de su corazón(B),
y no le has negado[b] la petición de sus labios. (Selah[c])
3 Porque le sales al encuentro con bendiciones de bien(C);
corona de oro fino colocas en su cabeza(D).
4 Vida te pidió y tú se la diste(E),
largura de días eternamente y para siempre(F).
5 Grande es su gloria por[d] tu salvación[e](G),
esplendor y majestad has puesto sobre él(H).
6 Pues le haces bienaventurado[f] para siempre(I);
con tu presencia le deleitas con alegría(J).
7 Porque el rey confía en el Señor(K),
y por[g] la misericordia del Altísimo no será conmovido(L).
8 Hallará tu mano a todos tus enemigos(M);
tu diestra hallará a aquellos que te odian.
9 Los harás como horno de fuego(N) en el tiempo de tu enojo[h];
el Señor en su ira los devorará(O),
y fuego los consumirá(P).
10 Su descendencia[i] destruirás de la faz de la tierra,
y sus descendientes[j](Q) de entre los hijos de los hombres.
11 Aunque intentaron[k] el mal contra ti(R),
y fraguaron una conspiración(S),
no prevalecerán,
12 pues tú los pondrás en fuga[l](T),
apuntarás a sus rostros con tu arco[m](U).
13 Engrandécete, oh Señor, en tu poder;
cantaremos y alabaremos tu poderío(V).

Psalm 21[a]
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
2 You have granted him his heart’s desire(C)
and have not withheld the request of his lips.[b]
3 You came to greet him with rich blessings
and placed a crown of pure gold(D) on his head.(E)
4 He asked you for life, and you gave it to him—
length of days, for ever and ever.(F)
5 Through the victories(G) you gave, his glory is great;
you have bestowed on him splendor and majesty.(H)
6 Surely you have granted him unending blessings
and made him glad with the joy(I) of your presence.(J)
7 For the king trusts in the Lord;(K)
through the unfailing love(L) of the Most High(M)
he will not be shaken.(N)
8 Your hand will lay hold(O) on all your enemies;
your right hand will seize your foes.
9 When you appear for battle,
you will burn them up as in a blazing furnace.
The Lord will swallow them up in his wrath,
and his fire will consume them.(P)
10 You will destroy their descendants from the earth,
their posterity from mankind.(Q)
11 Though they plot evil(R) against you
and devise wicked schemes,(S) they cannot succeed.
12 You will make them turn their backs(T)
when you aim at them with drawn bow.

Psalm 21
New King James Version
Joy in the Salvation of the Lord
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
21 The king shall have joy in Your strength, O Lord;
And in Your salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
2 You have given him his heart’s desire,
And have not withheld the (A)request of his lips. Selah
3 For You meet him with the blessings of goodness;
You set a crown of pure gold upon his head.
4 (B)He asked life from You, and You gave it to him—
Length of days forever and ever.
5 His glory is great in Your salvation;
Honor and majesty You have placed upon him.
6 For You have made him most blessed forever;
(C)You have made him [a]exceedingly glad with Your presence.
7 For the king trusts in the Lord,
And through the mercy of the Most High he shall not be [b]moved.
8 Your hand will find all Your enemies;
Your right hand will find those who hate You.
9 You shall make them as a fiery oven in the time of Your anger;
The Lord shall swallow them up in His wrath,
And the fire shall devour them.
10 Their offspring You shall destroy from the earth,
And their [c]descendants from among the sons of men.
11 For they intended evil against You;
They devised a plot which they are not able to (D)perform.
12 Therefore You will make them turn their back;
You will make ready Your arrows on Your string toward their faces.
13 Be exalted, O Lord, in Your own strength!
We will sing and praise Your power.
