After the battle

(Proverbs 21:1-31)
1
Unto the end. A psalm for David.
2
In thy strength, O Lord, the king shall joy; and in thy salvation he shall rejoice exceedingly.
3
Thou hast given him his heart’s desire: and hast not withholden from him the will of his lips.
4
For thou hast prevented him with blessings of sweetness: thou hast set on his head a crown of precious stones.
5
He asked life of thee: and thou hast given him length of days for ever and ever.
6
His glory is great in thy salvation: glory and great beauty shalt thou lay upon him.
7
For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.
8
For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
9
Let thy hand be found by all thy enemies: let thy right hand find out all them that hate thee.
10
Thou shalt make them as an oven of fire, in the time of thy anger: the Lord shall trouble them in his wrath, and fire shall devour them.
11
Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth: and their seed from among the children of men.
12
For they have intended evils against thee: they have devised counsels which they have not been able to establish.
13
For thou shalt make them turn their back: in thy remnants thou shalt prepare their face.
14
Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy own strength: we will sing and praise thy 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.
