21:1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The King shall reioyce in thy strength, O Lord: yea how greatly shall he reioyce in thy saluation!
21:2 Thou hast giuen him his hearts desire, and hast not denyed him the request of his lips. Selah.
21:3 For thou diddest preuent him with liberall blessings, and didest set a crowne of pure gold vpon his head.
21:4 He asked life of thee, and thou gauest him a long life for euer and euer.
21:5 His glory is great in thy saluation: dignitie and honour hast thou laid vpon him.
21:6 For thou hast set him as blessings for euer: thou hast made him glad with the ioy of thy countenance.
21:7 Because the King trusteth in the Lord, and in the mercie of the most High, he shall not slide.
21:8 Thine hand shall finde out all thine enemies, and thy right hand shall finde out them that hate thee.
21:9 Thou shalt make them like a fierie ouen in time of thine anger: the Lord shall destroy them in his wrath, and the fire shall deuoure them.
21:10 Their fruite shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seede from the children of men.
21:11 For they intended euill against thee, and imagined mischiefe, but they shall not preuaile.
21:12 Therefore shalt thou put them aparte, and the strings of thy bowe shalt thou make readie against their faces.
21:13 Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy strength: so will we sing and prayse thy power.
