Psalms 21:7-13 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

7. Because the king upon the Lordhis confidence doth lay;And through the grace of the most Highshall not be mov'd away.

8. Thine hand shall all those men find outthat en'mies are to thee;Ev'n thy right hand shall find out thoseof thee that haters be.

9. Like fiery ov'n thou shalt them make,when kindled is thine ire;God shall them swallow in his wrath,devour them shall the fire.

10. Their fruit from earth thou shalt destroy,their seed men from among:

11. For they beyond their might 'gainst theedid plot mischief and wrong.

12. Thou therefore shalt make them turn back,when thou thy shafts shalt placeUpon thy strings, made ready allto fly against their face.

13. In thy great pow'r and strength, O Lord,be thou exalted high;So shall we sing with joyful hearts,thy power praise shall we.
