< Psalms 72 >
1 Of Solomon - O God judgments your to [the] king give and righteousness your to [the] son of [the] king.
2 He will judge people your with righteousness and poor [people] your with justice.
3 They will carry mountains peace to the people and hills in righteousness.
4 He will judge - [the] poor [people] of [the] people he will save [the] children of [the] needy so he may crush [the] oppressor.
5 People will fear you with [the] sun and before [the] moon generation of generations.
6 He will come down like rain on mown grass like copious showers dropping of [the] earth.
7 He will flourish in days his [the] righteous and abundance of well-being [will be] until not [the] moon.
8 And may he rule from sea to sea and from [the] river to [the] ends of [the] earth.
9 Before him they will bow down desert-dwellers and enemies his dust they will lick up.
10 [the] kings of Tarshish and [the] islands tribute they will pay [the] kings of Sheba and Seba a gift they will bring near.
11 And they may bow down to him all kings all nations they will serve him.
12 For he will deliver [the] needy [who] cries for help and [the] poor and not a helper [belongs] to him.
13 He will have compassion on [the] poor and [the] needy and [the] lives of needy [people] he will save.
14 From oppression and from violence he will redeem life their and may be precious blood their in view his.
15 And may he live and he may give to him some of [the] gold of Sheba and [may] someone pray for him continually all the day may someone bless him.
16 May it be an abundance of grain - in the land on [the] top of [the] mountains may it wave like Lebanon fruit its and may people blossom from [the] city like [the] vegetation of the earth.
17 May it be name his for ever before [the] sun (may it increase *Q(K)*) name his and may they bless themselves by him all nations may they call blessed him.
18 [be] blessed - Yahweh God [the] God of Israel [who] does wonders to only him.
19 And [be] blessed - [the] name of glory his for ever and may it be filled glory his all the earth amen - and amen.
20 They are finished [the] prayers of David [the] son of Jesse.
