2. You have given him what his heart longed for. You haven't kept back from him what his lips asked for. Selah

3. You welcomed him with rich blessings. You placed a crown of pure gold on his head.

4. He asked you for life, and you gave it to him. You promised him days that would never end.

5. His glory is great because you helped him win his battles. You have honored him with glory and majesty.

6. You have given him blessings that will last forever. You have made him glad and joyful because you are with him.

7. The king trusts in the Lord. The faithful love of the Most High God will keep the king secure.

8. You, the king, will capture all of your enemies. Your right hand will take hold of them.

9. When you appear, you will be like a flaming furnace to them. The Lord will swallow them up in his anger. His fire will burn them up.

10. You will wipe their children from the face of the earth. You will remove them from the human race.
