Praise for Victory
1 The king is glad, O Lord, because you gave him strength;
he rejoices because you made him victorious.
2 You have given him his heart's desire;
you have answered his request.
3 You came to him with great blessings
and set a crown of gold on his head.
4 He asked for life, and you gave it,
a long and lasting life.
5 His glory is great because of your help;
you have given him fame and majesty.
6 Your blessings are with him forever,
and your presence fills him with joy.
7 The king trusts in the Lord Almighty;
and because of the Lord's constant love
he will always be secure.
8 The king will capture all his enemies;
he will capture everyone who hates him.
9 He will destroy them like a blazing fire
when he appears.
The Lord will devour them in his anger,
and fire will consume them.
10 None of their descendants will survive;
the king will kill them all.
11 They make their plans, and plot against him,
but they will not succeed.
12 He will shoot his arrows at them
and make them turn and run.
13 We praise you, Lord, for your great strength!
We will sing and praise your power.
Ķēniņš priecājas par Kunga spēku
1 Korvedim. Dāvida psalms .
2 Kungs, par tavu spēku priecājas ķēniņš,
kad tu viņu glāb, redzi, viņš līksmo!
3 Pēc kā viņa sirds alkst, tu viņam dod,
ko viņa lūpas lūdz, tu viņam neliedz.
4 Tu nāc tam pretī ar dāsnu svētību,
tu liec tam galvā tīrzelta kroni.
5 Viņš lūdza tev mūžu, tu viņam to devi –
ilgs viņa dienas mūžīgi mūžam.
6 Viņa godība liela, jo tu viņu sargā,
godā un slavā tu viņu ietērp,
7 tu viņam dāvā svētību mūžam,
liec priekā tam līksmot tavā priekšā.
8 Ķēniņš paļaujas uz Kungu –
Visuaugstais to mīl, un tas neklups.
9 Tava roka ķers visus tavus naidniekus,
tava labā roka ķers tavus nīdējus,
10 tu metīsi viņus kā degošā krāsnī –
kad tu parādīsies!
Kungs savās dusmās viņus aprīs,
un apēdīs viņus uguns!
11 Viņu pēcnācējus tu izdeldēsi no zemes
un viņu sēklu no cilvēkbērniem!
12 Tie gatavo ļaunu pret tevi,
viltu tie kaļ, bet nejaudā,
13 jo tu tiem liec muguru pagriezt,
kad savus lokus tu griez tiem vaigā!
14 Celies, Kungs, savā spēkā!
Mēs dziedam un spēlējam tavai varenībai.
