Psalms 21:2-11

²You have given him his heart's desire, and have not kept back the request of his lips. (Selah.)

³For you go before him with the blessings of good things: you put a crown of fair gold on his head.

⁴He made request to you for life, and you gave it to him, long life for ever and ever.

⁵His glory is great in your salvation: honour and authority have you put on him.

⁶For you have made him a blessing for ever: you have given him joy in the light of your face.

⁷For the king has faith in the Lord, and through the mercy of the Most High he will not be moved.

⁸Your hand will make a search for all your haters; your right hand will be hard on all those who are against you.

⁹You will make them like a flaming oven before you; the Lord in his wrath will put an end to them, and they will be burned up in the fire.

¹⁰Their fruit will be cut off from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.

¹¹For their thoughts were bitter against you: they had an evil design in their minds, which they were not able to put into effect.
