Psalms 21
21
Through Your Strength
For the end times, to the Pure and Shining One
David’s poem of praise # 21 Think of this song as a praise song to Jesus, our true King.
Looking Back
1Yahweh, because of your strength the king is strong.
Look how he rejoices in you!
He bursts out with a joyful song because of your victory!
2For you have given him his heart’s desire,
anything and everything he asks for.
You haven’t withheld a thing from the king.
Pause in his presence
3Rich blessings overflow with every encounter with you,
and you placed a royal crown of gold upon his head.
4He wanted life # 21:4 This can be viewed as a prophecy of our Lord Jesus asking for resurrection-life. Every verse of this psalm is prophetic, pointing us to Jesus. —you have given it to him and more!
The days of his blessing stretch on one after another, forever!
5You have honored him and made him famous.
Glory-garments are upon him,
and you surround him with splendor and majesty.
6Your victory heaps blessing after blessing upon him.
What joy and bliss he tastes, rejoicing before your face! # 21:6 Or “You make him joyful in joy with your face!”
7For the king trusts in Yahweh,
and he will never stumble, never fall.
The forever-love of the Most High holds him firm.
Looking Forward
8Your almighty hands have captured your foes.
You uncovered all who hate you and you seized them.
9-10When you appear before them,
unveiling the radiance of your face,
they will be consumed by the fierce fire of your presence.
Yahweh’s flames will swallow them up.
They and their descendants
will be destroyed by an unrelenting fire.
11We will watch them fail,
for these are the ones who plan their evil schemes against the Lord.
12They will turn and run at the sight of your judgment-arrows
aimed straight at their hearts.
Looking Up
13Rise up and put your might on display!
By your strength we will sing and praise your glorious power!

Thanksgiving for the King
For the director of music. A song of David.
1Lord, the king rejoices because of your strength.
He is so happy when you save him!
2You gave the king what he wanted.
You did not refuse what he asked for. Selah
3You put good things before him.
You placed a gold crown on his head.
4He asked you for life.
And you gave it to him.
His years go on and on.
5He has great glory because you gave him victories.
You gave him honor and praise.
6You always gave him blessings.
You made him glad because you were with him.
7The king truly trusts the Lord.
Because God Most High always loves him,
he will not be overwhelmed.
8Your hand is against all your enemies.
Those who hate you will feel your power.
9When you appear, you will burn them like wood in a furnace.
In your anger you will eat them up.
Your fire will burn them up.
10You will destroy their families from the earth.
Their children will not live.
11They made evil plans against you.
But their traps won’t work.
12You will make them turn their backs
when you aim your arrows at them.
13Be supreme, Lord, in your power.
We sing and praise your greatness.
