Psalms 21:8-13
Psalms 21:8-13 The Message (MSG)
With a fistful of enemies in one hand and a fistful of haters in the other, You radiate with such brilliance that they cringe as before a furnace. Now the furnace swallows them whole, the fire eats them alive! You purge the earth of their progeny, you wipe the slate clean. All their evil schemes, the plots they cook up, have fizzled—every one. You sent them packing; they couldn’t face you. Show your strength, GOD, so no one can miss it. We are out singing the good news!
Psalms 21:8-13 King James Version (KJV)
Thine hand shall find out all thine enemies: Thy right hand shall find out those that hate thee. 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. Their fruit shalt thou destroy from the earth, And their seed from among the children of men. For they intended evil against thee: They imagined a mischievous device, which they are not able to perform. Therefore shalt thou make them turn their back, When thou shalt make ready thine arrows upon thy strings against the face of them. Be thou exalted, LORD, in thine own strength: So will we sing and praise thy power.
Psalms 21:8-13 New American Standard Bible - NASB 1995 (NASB1995)
Your hand will find out all your enemies; Your right hand will find out those who hate you. You will make them as a fiery oven in the time of your anger; The LORD will swallow them up in His wrath, And fire will devour them. Their offspring You will destroy from the earth, And their descendants from among the sons of men. Though they intended evil against You And devised a plot, They will not succeed. For You will make them turn their back; You will aim with Your bowstrings at their faces. Be exalted, O LORD, in Your strength; We will sing and praise Your power.
Psalms 21:8-13 New Century Version (NCV)
Your hand is against all your enemies; those who hate you will feel your power. When you appear, you will burn them as in a furnace. In your anger you will swallow them up, and fire will burn them up. You will destroy their families from the earth; their children will not live. They made evil plans against you, but their traps won’t work. You will make them turn their backs when you aim your arrows at them. Be supreme, LORD, in your power. We sing and praise your greatness.
Psalms 21:8-13 American Standard Version (ASV)
Thy hand will find out all thine enemies; Thy right hand will find out those that hate thee. Thou wilt make them as a fiery furnace in the time of thine anger: Jehovah will swallow them up in his wrath, And the fire shall devour them. Their fruit wilt thou destroy from the earth, And their seed from among the children of men. For they intended evil against thee; They conceived a device which they are not able to perform. For thou wilt make them turn their back; Thou wilt make ready with thy bowstrings against their face. Be thou exalted, O Jehovah, in thy strength: So will we sing and praise thy power.

Your hand will lay hold on all your enemies; your right hand will seize your foes. When you appear for battle, you will burn them up as in a blazing furnace. The LORD will swallow them up in his wrath, and his fire will consume them. You will destroy their descendants from the earth, their posterity from mankind. Though they plot evil against you and devise wicked schemes, they cannot succeed. You will make them turn their backs when you aim at them with drawn bow. Be exalted in your strength, LORD; we will sing and praise your might.

You will capture all your enemies. Your strong right hand will seize all who hate you. You will throw them in a flaming furnace when you appear. The LORD will consume them in his anger; fire will devour them. You will wipe their children from the face of the earth; they will never have descendants. Although they plot against you, their evil schemes will never succeed. For they will turn and run when they see your arrows aimed at them. Rise up, O LORD, in all your power. With music and singing we celebrate your mighty acts.

They and their descendants will be destroyed by an unrelenting fire. We will watch them fail, for these are the ones who plan their evil schemes against the Lord. They will turn and run at the sight of your judgment-arrows aimed straight at their hearts. Rise up and put your might on display! By your strength we will sing and praise your glorious power!
