1 The king rejoices in your strength, LORD!

2 You have given him his heart’s desire,

3 For you meet him with the blessings of goodness.

4 He asked life of you and you gave it to him,

5 His glory is great in your salvation.

6 For you make him most blessed forever.

7 For the king trusts in the LORD.

8 Your hand will find out all of your enemies.

9 You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger.

10 You will destroy their descendants from the earth,

11 For they intended evil against you.

12 For you will make them turn their back,

13 Be exalted, LORD, in your strength,
