Psalms 20:1-8

¹(21) For the end, a Psalm of David. O Lord, the king shall rejoice in your strength; and in your salvation he shall greatly exult.

²You have granted him the desire of his soul, and have not withheld from him the request of his lips. Pause.

³For you have prevented him with blessings of goodness: you have set upon his head a crown of precious stone.

⁴He asked life of you, and you gave him length of days for ever and ever.

⁵His glory is great in your salvation: you will crown him with glory and majesty.

⁶For you will give him a blessing for ever and ever: you will gladden him with joy with your countenance.

⁷For the king trusts in the Lord, and through the mercy of the Highest he shall not be moved.

⁸Let your hand be found by all your enemies: let your right hand find all that hate you.
