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!

PSALM 21.
1Unto the end, for the morning protection, a psalm for David.
2O God my God, look upon me: why hast thou forsaken me? Far from my salvation are the words of my sins.
3O my God, I shall cry by day, and thou wilt not hear: and by night, and it shall not be reputed as folly in me.
4But thou dwellest in the holy place, the praise of Israel.
5In thee have our fathers hoped: they have hoped, and thou hast delivered them.
6They cried to thee, and they were saved: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.
7But I am a worm, and no man: the reproach of men, and the outcast of the people.
8All they that saw me have laughed me to scorn: they have spoken with the lips, and wagged the head.
9He hoped in the Lord, let him deliver him: let him save him, seeing he delighteth in him.
10For thou art he that hast drawn me out of the womb: my hope from the breasts of my mother.
11I was cast upon thee from the womb. From my mother's womb thou art my God,
12depart not from me. For tribulation is very near: for there is none to help me.
13Many calves have surrounded me: fat bulls have besieged me.
14They have opened their mouths against me, as a lion ravening and roaring.
15I am poured out like water; and all my bones are scattered. My heart is become like wax melting in the midst of my bowels.
16My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue hath cleaved to my jaws: and thou hast brought me down into the dust of death.
17For many dogs have encompassed me: the council of the malignant hath besieged me. They have dug my hands and feet.
18They have numbered all my bones. And they have looked and stared upon me.
19They parted my garments amongst them; and upon my vesture they cast lots.
20But thou, O Lord, remove not thy help to a distance from me; look towards my defence.
21Deliver, O God, my soul from the sword: my only one from the hand of the dog.
22Save me from the lion's mouth; and my lowness from the horns of the unicorns.
23I will declare thy name to my brethren: in the midst of the church will I praise thee.
24Ye that fear the Lord, praise him: all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him.
25Let all the seed of Israel fear him: because he hath not slighted nor despised the supplication of the poor man. Neither hath he turned away his face from me: and when I cried to him he heard me.
26With thee is my praise in a great church: I will pay my vows in the sight of them that fear him.
27The poor shall eat and shall be filled: and they shall praise the Lord that seek him: their hearts shall live for ever and ever.
28All the ends of the earth shall remember, and shall be converted to the Lord: And all the kindreds of the Gentiles shall adore in his sight.
29For the kingdom is the Lord's; and he shall have dominion over the nations.
30All the fat ones of the earth have eaten and have adored: all they that go down to the earth shall fall before him.
31And to him my soul shall live: and my seed shall serve him.
32There shall be declared to the Lord a generation to come: and the heavens shall shew forth his justice to a people that shall be born, which the Lord hath made.
