1 The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!

1 לַמְנַצֵּ֗חַ מִזְמֹ֥ור לְדָוִֽד׃

2 Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.

2 יְֽהוָ֗ה בְּעָזְּךָ֥ יִשְׂמַח־מֶ֑לֶךְ וּ֝בִישׁ֥וּעָתְךָ֗³ מַה־יָּ֥גֶיל¹ מְאֹֽד׃

3 For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.

3 תַּאֲוַ֣ת לִ֭בֹּו נָתַ֣תָּה לֹּ֑ו וַאֲרֶ֥שֶׁת פָתָ֗יו בַּל־מָנַ֥עְתָּ סֶּֽלָה׃

4 He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever.

4 כִּֽי־תְ֭קַדְּמֶנּוּ בִּרְכֹ֣ות טֹ֑וב תָּשִׁ֥ית לְ֝רֹאשֹׁ֗ו עֲטֶ֣רֶת פָּֽז׃

5 His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.

5 חַיִּ֤ים׀ שָׁאַ֣ל מִ֭מְּךָ נָתַ֣תָּה לֹּ֑ו אֹ֥רֶךְ יָ֝מִ֗ים עֹולָ֥ם וָעֶֽד׃

6 For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.

6 גָּדֹ֣ול³ כְּ֭בֹודֹו בִּישׁוּעָתֶ֑ךָ הֹ֥וד וְ֝הָדָר תְּשַׁוֶּ֥ה עָלָֽיו׃

7 For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.

7 כִּֽי־תְשִׁיתֵ֣הוּ בְרָכֹ֣ות לָעַ֑ד תְּחַדֵּ֥הוּ בְ֝שִׂמְחָ֗ה אֶת־פָּנֶֽיךָ׃

8 Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.

8 כִּֽי־הַ֭מֶּלֶךְ בֹּטֵ֣חַ בַּיהוָ֑ה וּבְחֶ֥סֶד עֶ֝לְיֹ֗ון בַּל־יִמֹּֽוט׃

9 Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the LORD shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.

9 תִּמְצָ֣א יָ֭דְךָ לְכָל־אֹיְבֶ֑יךָ יְ֝מִֽינְךָ תִּמְצָ֥א שֹׂנְאֶֽיךָ׃

10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.

10 תְּשִׁיתֵ֤מֹו׀ כְּתַנּ֥וּר אֵשׁ֮ לְעֵ֪ת פָּ֫נֶ֥יךָ יְ֭הוָה בְּאַפֹּ֣ו יְבַלְּעֵ֑ם וְֽתֹאכְלֵ֥ם אֵֽשׁ׃

11 For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.

11 פִּ֭רְיָמֹו מֵאֶ֣רֶץ תְּאַבֵּ֑ד וְ֝זַרְעָ֗ם מִבְּנֵ֥י אָדָֽם׃

12 Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.

12 כִּי־נָט֣וּ עָלֶ֣יךָ רָעָ֑ה חָֽשְׁב֥וּ מְ֝זִמָּ֗ה בַּל־יוּכָֽלוּ׃

13 Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.

13 כִּ֭י תְּשִׁיתֵ֣מֹו שֶׁ֑כֶם בְּ֝מֵֽיתָרֶ֗יךָ תְּכֹונֵ֥ן עַל־פְּנֵיהֶֽם׃
