| 72:1 |
[A Psalm of Solomon]. Give the king Thy judgments, O God, And Thy righteousness to the king's son.
|
| 72:2 |
May he judge Thy people with righteousness, And Thine afflicted with justice.
|
| 72:3 |
Let the mountains bring peace to the people, And the hills in righteousness.
|
| 72:4 |
May he vindicate the afflicted of the people, Save the children of the needy, And crush the oppressor.
|
| 72:5 |
Let them fear Thee while the sun [endures], And as long as the moon, throughout all generations.
|
| 72:6 |
May he come down like rain upon the mown grass, Like showers that water the earth.
|
| 72:7 |
In his days may the righteous flourish, And abundance of peace till the moon is no more.
|
| 72:8 |
May he also rule from sea to sea, And from the River to the ends of the earth.
|
| 72:9 |
Let the nomads of the desert bow before him; And his enemies lick the dust.
|
| 72:10 |
Let the kings of Tarshish and of the islands bring presents; The kings of Sheba and Seba offer gifts.
|
| 72:11 |
And let all kings bow down before him, All nations serve him.
|
| 72:12 |
For he will deliver the needy when he cries for help, The afflicted also, and him who has no helper.
|
| 72:13 |
He will have compassion on the poor and needy, And the lives of the needy he will save.
|
| 72:14 |
He will rescue their life from oppression and violence; And their blood will be precious in his sight;
|
| 72:15 |
So may he live; and may the gold of Sheba be given to him; And let them pray for him continually; Let them bless him all day long.
|
| 72:16 |
May there be abundance of grain in the earth on top of the mountains; Its fruit will wave like [the cedars of] Lebanon; And may those from the city flourish like vegetation of the earth.
|
| 72:17 |
May his name endure forever; May his name increase as long as the sun [shines]; And let [men] bless themselves by him; Let all nations call him blessed.
|
| 72:18 |
Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, Who alone works wonders.
|
| 72:19 |
And blessed be His glorious name forever; And may the whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen, and Amen.
|
| 72:20 |
The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
