psalms 72

1 - God, give the king your justice;your righteousness to the royal son.
2 - He will judge your people with righteousness,and your poor with justice.
3 - The mountains shall bring prosperity to the people.The hills bring the fruit of righteousness.
4 - He will judge the poor of the people.He will save the children of the needy,and will break the oppressor in pieces.
5 - They shall fear you while the sun endures;and as long as the moon, throughout all generations.
6 - He will come down like rain on the mown grass,as showers that water the earth.
7 - In his days, the righteous shall flourish,and abundance of peace, until the moon is no more.
8 - He shall have dominion also from sea to sea,from the River to the ends of the earth.
9 - Those who dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him.His enemies shall lick the dust.
10 - The kings of Tarshish and of the islands will bring tribute.The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
11 - Yes, all kings shall fall down before him.All nations shall serve him.
12 - For he will deliver the needy when he cries;the poor, who has no helper.
13 - He will have pity on the poor and needy.He will save the souls of the needy.
14 - He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence.Their blood will be precious in his sight.
15 - They shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba.Men shall pray for him continually.They shall bless him all day long.
16 - Abundance of grain shall be throughout the land.Its fruit sways like Lebanon.Let it flourish, thriving like the grass of the field.
17 - His name endures forever.His name continues as long as the sun.Men shall be blessed by him.All nations will call him blessed.
18 - Praise be to the LORD God, the God of Israel,who alone does marvelous deeds.
19 - Blessed be his glorious name forever!Let the whole earth be filled with his glory!Amen and amen.
20 - This ends the prayers by David, the son of Jesse.
