1 For the end, a Psalm of David.
·
2 O Lord, the king shall rejoice in thy strength; And in thy salvation he shall greatly exult.
21:1 Al Músico principal: Salmo de David. ALEGRARÁSE el rey en tu fortaleza, oh Jehová; y en tu salud se gozará mucho.
3 Thou hast granted him the desire of his soul, And hast not withheld from him the request of his lips. Pause.
21:2 El deseo de su corazón le diste, y no le negaste lo que sus labios pronunciaron. (Selah.)
4 For thou hast prevented him with blessings of goodness: Thou hast set upon his head a crown of precious stone.
21:3 Pues le has salido al encuentro con bendiciones de bien: corona de oro fino has puesto sobre su cabeza.
5 He asked life of thee, and thou gavest him Length of days forever and ever.
21:4 Vida te demandó, [y] dístele largura de días por siglos y siglos.
6 His glory is great in thy salvation: Thou wilt crown him with glory and majesty.
21:5 Grande es su gloria en tu salud: honra y majestad has puesto sobre él.
7 For thou wilt give him a blessing forever and ever: Thou wilt gladden him with joy with thy countenance.
21:6 Porque lo has bendecido para siempre; llenástelo de alegría con tu rostro.
8 For the king trusts in the Lord, And through the mercy of the Highest he shall not be moved.
21:7 Por cuanto el rey confía en Jehová, y en la misericordia del Altísimo, no será conmovido.
9 Let thy hand be found by all thine enemies: Let thy right hand find all that hate thee.
21:8 Alcanzará tu mano á todos tus enemigos; tu diestra alcanzará á los que te aborrecen.
10 Thou shalt make them as a fiery oven at the time of thy presence: The Lord shall trouble them in his anger, And fire shall devour them.
21:9 Ponerlos has como horno de fuego en el tiempo de tu ira: Jehová los deshará en su furor, y fuego los consumirá.
11 Thou shalt destroy their fruit from the earth, And their seed from [among] the sons of men.
21:10 Su fruto destruirás de la tierra, y su simiente de entre los hijos de los hombres.
12 For they intended evils against thee; They imagined a device which they shall by no means be able to perform.
21:11 Porque trazaron el mal contra ti: fraguaron maquinaciones, [mas] no prevalecerán.
13 For thou shalt make them [turn their] back in thy latter end, Thou wilt prepare their face.
21:12 Pues tú los pondrás en fuga, [cuando] aparejares en tus cuerdas [las saetas] contra sus rostros.
14 Be thou exalted, O Lord, in thy strength: We will sing and praise thy mighty acts.
21:13 Ensálzate, oh Jehová, con tu fortaleza: cantaremos y alabaremos tu poderío.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations). Verse numbers below follow the Hebrew/English numbering: 21.

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Commentary Augustine of Hippo, Expositions on the Psalms (Psalm XX)

    This is a well-known title; and it is not Christ who speaks; but the prophet speaks to Christ, under the form of wishing, foretelling things to come. 2. "The Lord hear Thee in the day of trouble" (ver. 1).

  2. Quotes verse 21:4 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book II, Chapters XXXIV–XXXV)

    … they were made; He commanded, and they were created: He hath established them for ever, yea, forever and ever." And again, He thus speaks respecting the salvation of man: "He asked life of Thee, and Thou gavest him length of days for ever and ever;" indicating that it is the Father of all who imparts continuance for ever and ever …
