Salmos 21

Biblia Sagrada	NEW JERUSALEM
1 Al Director. Salmo de David.	1 [For the choirmaster Psalm Of David] Yahweh, the king rejoices in your power; How your saving helpfills him with joy!
2 Señor, el rey se alegra por tu fuerza, | ¡y cuánto goza con tu victoria!	2 You have granted him his heart's desire, not denied him the prayer of his lips.Pause
3 Le has concedido el deseo de su corazón, | no le has negado lo que pedían sus labios.	3 For you come to meet him with blessings of prosperity, put a crown of pure gold on his head.
4 Te adelantaste a bendecirlo con el éxito, | y has puesto en su cabeza una corona de oro fino. (Pausa)	4 He has asked for life, you have given it him, length of days for ever and ever.
5 Te pidió vida, y se la has concedido, | años que se prolongan sin término.	5 Great his glory through your saving help; you invest him with splendour and majesty.
6 Tu victoria ha engrandecido su fama, | lo has vestido de honor y majestad.	6 You confer on him everlasting blessings, you gladden him with the joy of your presence.
7 Le concedes bendiciones incesantes, | lo colmas de gozo en tu presencia.	7 For the king puts his trust in Yahweh; the faithful love of the Most High wil keep him from fal ing.
8 Porque el rey confía en el Señor, | y con la gracia del Altísimo no fracasará.	8 Your hand wil reach all your enemies, your right hand al who hate you.
9 Que tu izquierda alcance a tus enemigos, | y tu derecha a los que te odian.	9 You will hurl them into a blazing furnace on the day when you appear; Yahweh wil engulf them in his anger, and fire wil devour them.
10 Los convertirás en un horno encendido, | el día de tu cólera, Señor; | los devorará en su ira, | el fuego los consumirá.	10 You wil purge the earth of their descendants, the human race of their posterity.
11 Borrarás de la tierra su fruto, | y su semilla de entre los humanos.	11 They have devised evil against you but, plot as they may, they will not succeed,
12 Aunque tramen maldades contra ti | y urdan intrigas, nada conseguirán,	12 since you will make them turn tail, by shooting your arrows in their faces.
13 pues los pondrás en fuga, | tensando el arco contra ellos.	13 Rise, Yahweh, in your power! We wil sing and make music in honour of your strength.
14 Levántate, Señor, con tu fuerza, | y al son de instrumentos cantaremos tu poder.
