Psalms 21:1-7

¹To the Overseer. — A Psalm of David. Jehovah, in Thy strength is the king joyful, In Thy salvation how greatly he rejoiceth.

²The desire of his heart Thou gavest to him, And the request of his lips Thou hast not withheld. Selah.

³For Thou puttest before him blessings of goodness, Thou settest on his head a crown of fine gold.

⁴Life he hath asked from Thee, Thou hast given to him — length of days, Age-during — and for ever.

⁵Great is his honour in Thy salvation, Honour and majesty Thou placest on him.

⁶For Thou makest him blessings for ever, Thou dost cause him to rejoice with joy, By Thy countenance.

⁷For the king is trusting in Jehovah, And in the kindness of the Most High He is not moved.
