After the battle

(Proverbs 21:1-31)
1
O LORD, the king rejoices in Your strength. How greatly he exults in Your salvation!
2
You have granted his heart’s desire and have not withheld the request of his lips.
3
Selah For You welcomed him with rich blessings; You placed on his head a crown of pure gold.
4
He asked You for life, and You granted it length of days, forever and ever.
5
Great is his glory in Your salvation; You bestow on him splendor and majesty.
6
For You grant him blessings forever; You cheer him with joy in Your presence.
7
For the king trusts in the LORD; through the loving devotion of the Most High, he will not be shaken.
8
Your hand will apprehend all Your enemies; Your right hand will seize those who hate You.
9
You will place them in a fiery furnace at the time of Your appearing. In His wrath the LORD will engulf them, and the fire will consume them.
10
You will wipe their descendants from the earth, and their offspring from the sons of men.
11
Though they intend You harm, the schemes they devise will not prevail.
12
For You will put them to flight when Your bow is trained upon them.
13
Be exalted, O LORD, in Your strength; we will sing and praise Your power.

After the battle

(Proverbs 21:1-31)
1
The king rejoices in your strength, LORD! How greatly he rejoices in your salvation!
2
You have given him his heart’s desire, and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah.
3
For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.
4
He asked life of you and you gave it to him, even length of days forever and ever.
5
His glory is great in your salvation. You lay honor and majesty on him.
6
For you make him most blessed forever. You make him glad with joy in your presence.
7
For the king trusts in the LORD. Through the loving kindness of the Most High, he shall not be moved.
8
Your hand will find out all of your enemies. Your right hand will find out those who hate you.
9
You will make them as a fiery furnace in the time of your anger. The LORD will swallow them up in his wrath. The fire shall devour them.
10
You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from among the children of men.
11
For they intended evil against you. They plotted evil against you which cannot succeed.
12
For you will make them turn their back, when you aim drawn bows at their face.
13
Be exalted, LORD, in your strength, so we will sing and praise your power.
