| 1. | <To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of David.> The king will be glad in your strength, O Lord; how great will be his delight in your salvation! |
| 2. | You have given him his heart's desire, and have not kept back the request of his lips. (Selah.) |
| 3. | For you go before him with the blessings of good things: you put a crown of fair gold on his head. |
| 4. | He made request to you for life, and you gave it to him, long life for ever and ever. |
| 5. | His glory is great in your salvation: honour and authority have you put on him. |
| 6. | For you have made him a blessing for ever: you have given him joy in the light of your face. |
| 7. | For the king has faith in the Lord, and through the mercy of the Most High he will not be moved. |
| 8. | Your hand will make a search for all your haters; your right hand will be hard on all those who are against you. |
| 9. | You 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. |
| 10. | Their fruit will be cut off from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men. |
| 11. | For their thoughts were bitter against you: they had an evil design in their minds, which they were not able to put into effect. |
| 12. | Their backs will be turned when you make ready the cords of your bow against their faces. |
| 13. | Be lifted up, O Lord, in your strength; so will we make songs in praise of your power. |
