Psalms 21:4-13 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

4. He asked You for life, and You gave it to him —length of days forever and ever.

5. His glory is great through Your victory;You confer majesty and splendor on him.

6. You give him blessings forever; You cheer him with joy in Your presence.

7. For the king relies on the Lord;through the faithful love of the Most Highhe is not shaken.

8. Your hand will capture all your enemies;your right hand will seize those who hate you.

9. You will make them burnlike a fiery furnace when you appear;the Lord will engulf them in His wrath,and fire will devour them.

10. You will wipe their descendants from the earthand their offspring from the human race.

11. Though they intend to harm youand devise a wicked plan, they will not prevail.

12. Instead, you will put them to flightwhen you aim your bow at their faces.

13. Be exalted, Lord, in Your strength;we will sing and praise Your might.
