Chapter 21
1לַמְנַצֵּחַ מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽדFor the leader. A psalm of David.
2יְֽהֹוָה בְּעׇזְּךָ יִשְׂמַח־מֶלֶךְ וּבִישׁוּעָתְךָ מַה־[יָּגֶל] (יגיל) מְאֹֽדO ETERNAL One, the king rejoices in Your strength; how greatly he exults in Your victory!
3תַּאֲוַת לִבּוֹ נָתַתָּה לּוֹ וַאֲרֶשֶׁת שְׂפָתָיו בַּל־מָנַעְתָּ סֶּֽלָהYou have granted him the desire of his heart, have not denied the request of his lips. Selah.
4כִּֽי־תְקַדְּמֶנּוּ בִּרְכוֹת טוֹב תָּשִׁית לְרֹאשׁוֹ עֲטֶרֶת פָּֽזYou have proffered him blessings of good things, have set upon his head a crown of fine gold.
5חַיִּים שָׁאַל מִמְּךָ נָתַתָּה לּוֹ אֹרֶךְ יָמִים עוֹלָם וָעֶֽדHe asked You for life; You granted it; a long life, everlasting.
6גָּדוֹל כְּבוֹדוֹ בִּישׁוּעָתֶךָ הוֹד וְהָדָר תְּשַׁוֶּה עָלָֽיוGreat is his glory through Your victory; You have endowed him with splendor and majesty.
7כִּֽי־תְשִׁיתֵהוּ בְרָכוֹת לָעַד תְּחַדֵּהוּ בְשִׂמְחָה אֶת־פָּנֶֽיךָYou have made him blessed forever, gladdened him with the joy of Your presence.
8כִּֽי־הַמֶּלֶךְ בֹּטֵחַ בַּיהֹוָה וּבְחֶסֶד עֶלְיוֹן בַּל־יִמּֽוֹטFor the king trusts in GOD; through the faithfulness of the Most High he will not be shaken.
9תִּמְצָא יָדְךָ לְכׇל־אֹיְבֶיךָ יְמִֽינְךָ תִּמְצָא שֹׂנְאֶֽיךָYour hand is equal to all Your enemies; Your right hand overpowers Your foes.
10תְּשִׁיתֵמוֹ כְּתַנּוּר אֵשׁ לְעֵת פָּנֶיךָ יְהֹוָה בְּאַפּוֹ יְבַלְּעֵם וְֽתֹאכְלֵם אֵֽשׁYou set them ablaze like a furnace when You show Your presence. GOD in anger destroys them; fire consumes them.
11פִּרְיָמוֹ מֵאֶרֶץ תְּאַבֵּד וְזַרְעָם מִבְּנֵי אָדָֽםYou wipe their offspring from the earth, their issue from among humankind.
12כִּי־נָטוּ עָלֶיךָ רָעָה חָֽשְׁבוּ מְזִמָּה בַּל־יוּכָֽלוּFor they schemed against You; they laid plans, but could not succeed.
13כִּי תְּשִׁיתֵמוֹ שֶׁכֶם בְּמֵֽיתָרֶיךָ תְּכוֹנֵן עַל־פְּנֵיהֶֽםFor You make them turn back by Your bows aimed at their face.
14רוּמָה יְהֹוָה בְּעֻזֶּךָ נָשִׁירָה וּֽנְזַמְּרָה גְּבוּרָתֶֽךָBe exalted, O ETERNAL One, through Your strength; we will sing and chant the praises of Your mighty deeds.
