1 To him that excelleth. A Psalme of Dauid. The King shall reioyce in thy stregth, O Lord: yea how greatly shal he reioyce in thy saluatio! 2 Thou hast giuen him his hearts desire, and hast not denyed him the request of his lips. Selah. 3 For thou diddest preuent him with liberall blessings, and didest set a crowne of pure gold vpon his head. 4 He asked life of thee, and thou gauest him a long life for euer and euer. 5 His glory is great in thy saluation: dignitie and honour hast thou laid vpon him. 6 For thou hast set him as blessings for euer: thou hast made him glad with the ioy of thy countenance. 7 Because the King trusteth in the Lord, and in the mercie of the most High, he shall not slide. 8 Thine hand shall finde out all thine enemies, and thy right hand shall finde out them that hate thee. 9 Thou shalt make them like a fierie ouen in time of thine anger: the Lord shall destroy them in his wrath, and the fire shall deuoure them. Psalms 21:1-9, Geneva Bible of 1587. Public domain.
