Salmos 21

Reina Valera 1909 (RV1909) · Español

1 Al Músico principal: Salmo de David. ALEGRARÁSE el rey en tu fortaleza, oh Jehová; y en tu salud se gozará mucho. 2 El deseo de su corazón le diste, y no le negaste lo que sus labios pronunciaron. (Selah.) 3 Pues le has salido al encuentro con bendiciones de bien: corona de oro fino has puesto sobre su cabeza. 4 Vida te demandó, y dístele largura de días por siglos y siglos. 5 Grande es su gloria en tu salud: honra y majestad has puesto sobre él. 6 Porque lo has bendecido para siempre; llenástelo de alegría con tu rostro. 7 Por cuanto el rey confía en Jehová, y en la misericordia del Altísimo, no será conmovido. 8 Alcanzará tu mano á todos tus enemigos; tu diestra alcanzará á los que te aborrecen. 9 Ponerlos has como horno de fuego en el tiempo de tu ira: Jehová los deshará en su furor, y fuego los consumirá. 10 Su fruto destruirás de la tierra, y su simiente de entre los hijos de los hombres. 11 Porque trazaron el mal contra ti: fraguaron maquinaciones, mas no prevalecerán. 12 Pues tú los pondrás en fuga, cuando aparejares en tus cuerdas las saetas contra sus rostros. 13 Ensálzate, oh Jehová, con tu fortaleza: cantaremos y alabaremos tu poderío.
