诗篇 72
1 所罗门的诗。 神啊，求你将判断的权柄赐给王， 将公义赐给王的儿子。
A psalm on Solomon.
2 他要按公义审判你的民， 按公平审判你的困苦人。
Give to the king thy judgment, O God: and to the king’s son thy justice: To judge thy people with justice, and thy poor with judgment.
3 大山小山都要因公义使民得享平安。
Let the mountains receive peace for the people: and the hills justice.
4 他必为民中的困苦人伸冤， 拯救穷乏之辈， 压碎那欺压人的。
He shall judge the poor of the people, and he shall save the children of the poor: and he shall humble the oppressor.
5 太阳还存，月亮还在， 人要敬畏你，直到万代！
And he shall continue with the sun, and before the moon, throughout all generations.
6 他必降临，像雨降在已割的草地上， 如甘霖滋润田地。
He shall come down like rain upon the fleece; and as showers falling gently upon the earth.
7 在他的日子，义人要发旺， 大有平安，好像月亮长存。
In his days shall justice spring up, and abundance of peace, till the moon be taken sway.
8 他要执掌权柄，从这海直到那海， 从大河直到地极。
And he shall rule from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.
9 住在旷野的，必在他面前下拜； 他的仇敌必要舔土。
Before him the Ethiopians shall fall down: and his enemies shall lick the ground.
10 他施和海岛的王要进贡； 示巴和西巴的王要献礼物。
The kings of Tharsis and the islands shall offer presents: the kings of the Arabians and of Saba shall bring gifts:
11 诸王都要叩拜他； 万国都要事奉他。
And all kings of the earth shall adore him: all nations shall serve him.
12 因为，穷乏人呼求的时候，他要搭救； 没有人帮助的困苦人，他也要搭救。
For he shall deliver the poor from the mighty: and the needy that had no helper.
13 他要怜恤贫寒和穷乏的人， 拯救穷苦人的性命。
He shall spare the poor and needy: and he shall save the souls of the poor.
14 他要救赎他们脱离欺压和强暴； 他们的血在他眼中看为宝贵。
He shall redeem their souls from usuries and iniquity: and their names shall be honourable in his sight.
15 他们要存活。 示巴的金子要奉给他； 人要常常为他祷告，终日称颂他。
And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Arabia, for him they shall always adore: they shall bless him all the day.
16 在地的山顶上，五谷必然茂盛； 所结的谷实要响动，如黎巴嫩的树林； 城里的人要发旺，如地上的草。
And there shall be a firmament on the earth on the tops of mountains, above Libanus shall the fruit thereof be exalted: and they of the city shall flourish like the grass of the earth.
17 他的名要存到永远， 要留传如日之久。 人要因他蒙福； 万国要称他有福。
Let his name be blessed for evermore: his name continueth before the sun. And in him shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed: all nations shall magnify him.
18 独行奇事的耶和华—以色列的 神 是应当称颂的！
Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who alone doth wonderful things.
19 他荣耀的名也当称颂，直到永远。 愿他的荣耀充满全地！ 阿们！阿们！
And blessed be the name of his majesty for ever: and the whole earth shall be filled with his majesty. So be it. So be it.
20 耶西的儿子—大卫的祈祷完毕。
The praises of David, the son of Jesse, are ended.
