Psalm 21:1

Verse 1 of 13. The 21st of 150 chapters in Psalms, in Poetry and Wisdom.

1The king shall joy in thy strength, O Lord; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!

2Thou hast given him his heart’s desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.

3For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.

4He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever.

5His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.
