1  O Lord, in your ^zstrength the king rejoices,

and in your ^asalvation how greatly he exults!

2  You have ^bgiven him his heart’s desire

and have not withheld the request of his lips. Selah

3  For you ^cmeet him with rich blessings;

you set ^da crown of ^efine gold upon his head.

4  He asked life of you; you ^fgave it to him,

^glength of days forever and ever.

5  His ^hglory is great through your salvation;

ⁱsplendor and majesty you bestow on him.

6  For you make him most blessed forever;¹

you make him glad with the ^jjoy of your presence.

7  For the king trusts in the Lord,

and through the steadfast love of the Most High he shall not be ^kmoved.
