Psalms 21

KING JAMES BIBLE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 The king shall joy in thy strength, O LORD; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!	1 Unto the end. A psalm for David.
2 Thou hast given him his heart's desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.	2 In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.
3 For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.	3 Thou hast given him his heart's desire: end hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.
4 He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever.	4 For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.
5 His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.	5 He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.
6 For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.	6 His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.
7 For the king trusteth in the LORD, and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.	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 Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.	8 For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
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 Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that hate thee.
10 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.	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 For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.	11 Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth: and their seed from among the children of men.
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 For they have intended evils against thee: they have devised counsels which they have not been able to establish.
13 Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.	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.
