[1]O Lord, the king shall rejoice in thy strength; and in thy salvation he shall greatly exult. [No book]
[2]Thou hast granted him the desire of his soul, and hast not withheld from him the request of his lips. Pause. [No book]
[3]For thou hast prevented him with blessings of goodness: thou has set upon his head a crown of precious stone. [No book]
[4]He asked life of thee, and thou gavest him length of days for ever and ever. [No book]
[5]His glory is great in thy salvation: thou wilt crown him with glory and majesty. [No book]
[6]For thou wilt give him a blessing for ever and ever: thou wilt gladden him with joy with thy countenance. [No book]
[7]For the king trusts in the Lord, and through the mercy of the Highest he shall not be moved. [No book]
[8]Let thy hand be found by all thine enemies: let thy right hand find all that hate thee. [No book]
[9]Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven at the time of thy presence: the Lord shall trouble them in his anger, and fire shall devour them. [No book]
[10]Thou shalt destroy their fruit from the earth, and their seed from among the sons of men. [No book]
[11]For they intended evils against thee; they imagined a device which they shall by no means be able to perform. [No book]
[12]For thou shalt make them turn their back in thy latter end, thou wilt prepare their face. [No book]
[13]Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy strength: we will sing and praise thy mighty acts. [No book]
