You make me happier than those who have abundant grain and wine.

You make my enemies retreat; I destroy those who hate me.

You have given your loyal followers a rallying flag, so that they might seek safety from the bow. (Selah)

You grant him his heart’s desire; you do not refuse his request. (Selah)

He asked you to sustain his life, and you have granted him long life and an enduring dynasty.

Look, you make my days short-lived, and my life span is nothing from your perspective. Surely all people, even those who seem secure, are nothing but vapor.
