ESVEnglish Standard Version

For the king trusts in the Lord,

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

Your hand will find out all your enemies;

your right hand will find out those who hate you.

You will make them as a blazing oven

when you appear.

The Lord will swallow them up in his wrath,

and fire will consume them.

You will destroy their descendants from the earth,

and their offspring from among the children of man.

Though they plan evil against you,

though they devise mischief, they will not succeed.

through the unfailing love of the Most High

he will not be shaken.

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.

NLTNew Living Translation

For the king trusts in the Lord.

The unfailing love of the Most High will keep him from stumbling.

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.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Because the king trusts Yahweh,

and through the steadfast love of the Most High

he shall not be moved.

Your hand will find all your enemies;

your right hand will find those who hate you.

You will make them like your fiery furnace

at the time of your appearance.

Yahweh will swallow them in his wrath

and fire will consume them.

You will destroy their offspring from the earth,

and their descendants from among the children of humankind.

Though they have plotted evil against you,

though they have planned a scheme, they will not prevail.

KJV 1900King James Version

For the king trusteth in the Lord,

And through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.

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.
