DRA  Psalm 20:1 Unto the end. A psalm for David

2 Domine, in virtute tua laetabitur rex, et super salutare tuum exsultabit vehementer.

 

2 In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.

 

3 Desiderium cordis ejus tribuisti ei, et voluntate labiorum ejus non fraudasti eum.

 4 Quoniam praevenisti eum in benedictionibus dulcedinis; posuisti in capite ejus coronam de lapide pretioso.

 5 Vitam petiit a te, et tribuisti ei longitudinem dierum, in saeculum, et in saeculum saeculi.

 6 Magna est gloria ejus in salutari tuo; gloriam et magnum decorem impones super eum.

 7 Quoniam dabis eum in benedictionem in saeculum saeculi; laetificabis eum in gaudio cum vultu tuo.

 8 Quoniam rex sperat in Domino, et in misericordia Altissimi non commovebitur.

 9 Inveniatur manus tua omnibus inimicis tuis; dextera tua inveniat omnes qui te oderunt.

 10 Pones eos ut clibanum ignis in tempore vultus tui: Dominus in ira sua conturbabit eos, et devorabit eos ignis.

 11 Fructum eorum de terra perdes, et semen eorum a filiis hominum,

 12 quoniam declinaverunt in te mala; cogitaverunt consilia quae non potuerunt stabilire.

 13 Quoniam pones eos dorsum; in reliquiis tuis praeparabis vultum eorum.

 14 Exaltare, Domine, in virtute tua; cantabimus et psallemus virtutes tuas.

  3 Thou hast given him his heart's desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.

 4 For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.

 5 He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.

 6 His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.

 7 For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.

 8 For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.

 9 Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that hate thee.

 10 Thou shalt make them as an oven of fire, in the time of thy anger: the Lord shall trouble them in his wrath, and fire shall devour them.

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

 12 For they have intended evils against thee: they have devised counsels which they have not been able to establish.

 13 For thou shalt make them turn their back: in thy remnants thou shalt prepare their face.

 14 Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy own strength: we will sing and praise thy power.
