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.

After the battle

(Proverbs 21:1-31)
1
The king shall joy in thy strength, O Lord ; and in thy salvation how greatly shall he rejoice!
2
Thou hast given him his heart’s desire, and hast not withholden the request of his lips. Selah.
3
For thou preventest him with the blessings of goodness: thou settest a crown of pure gold on his head.
4
He asked life of thee, and thou gavest it him, even length of days for ever and ever.
5
His glory is great in thy salvation: honour and majesty hast thou laid upon him.
6
For thou hast made him most blessed for ever: thou hast made him exceeding glad with thy countenance.(a) (b)
7
For the king trusteth in the Lord , and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
8
Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee.
9
Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven in the time of thine anger: the Lord shall swallow them up in his wrath, and the fire shall devour them.
10
Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.
11
For they intended evil against thee: they imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform.
12
Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, when thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them.(c) (d)
13
Be thou exalted, Lord , in thine own strength: so will we sing and praise thy power.
