תהילים 72

1 לִשְׁלֹמֹה ׀ אֱֽלֹהִים מִשְׁפָּטֶיךָ לְמֶלֶךְ תֵּן וְצִדְקָתְךָ לְבֶן־מֶֽלֶךְ׃

A Psalm of Solomon. Give the king Thy judgments, O God, and Thy righteousness unto the king's son;

2 יָדִין עַמְּךָ בְצֶדֶק וַעֲנִיֶּיךָ בְמִשְׁפָּֽט׃

That he may judge Thy people with righteousness, and Thy poor with justice.

3 יִשְׂאוּ הָרִים שָׁלוֹם לָעָם וּגְבָעוֹת בִּצְדָקָֽה׃

Let the mountains bear peace to the people, and the hills, through righteousness.

4 יִשְׁפֹּט ׀ עֲֽנִיֵּי־עָם יוֹשִׁיעַ לִבְנֵי אֶבְיוֹן וִידַכֵּא עוֹשֵֽׁק׃

May he judge the poor of the people, and save the children of the needy, and crush the oppressor.

5 יִירָאוּךָ עִם־שָׁמֶשׁ וְלִפְנֵי יָרֵחַ דּוֹר דּוֹרִֽים׃

They shall fear Thee while the sun endureth, and so long as the moon, throughout all generations.

6 יֵרֵד כְּמָטָר עַל־גֵּז כִּרְבִיבִים זַרְזִיף אָֽרֶץ׃

May he come down like rain upon the mown grass, as showers that water the earth.

7 יִֽפְרַח־בְּיָמָיו צַדִּיק וְרֹב שָׁלוֹם עַד־בְּלִי יָרֵֽחַ׃

In his days let the righteous flourish, and abundance of peace, till the moon be no more.

8 וְיֵרְדְּ מִיָּם עַד־יָם וּמִנָּהָר עַד־אַפְסֵי־אָֽרֶץ׃

May he have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the River unto the ends of the earth.

9 לְפָנָיו יִכְרְעוּ צִיִּים וְאֹיְבָיו עָפָר יְלַחֵֽכוּ׃

Let them that dwell in the wilderness bow before him; and his enemies lick the dust.

10 מַלְכֵי תַרְשִׁישׁ וְאִיִּים מִנְחָה יָשִׁיבוּ מַלְכֵי שְׁבָא וּסְבָא אֶשְׁכָּר יַקְרִֽיבוּ׃

The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall render tribute; the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.

11 וְיִשְׁתַּחֲווּ־לוֹ כׇל־מְלָכִים כׇּל־גּוֹיִם יַעַבְדֽוּהוּ׃

Yea, all kings shall prostrate themselves before him; all nations shall serve him.

12 כִּֽי־יַצִּיל אֶבְיוֹן מְשַׁוֵּעַ וְעָנִי וְֽאֵין־עֹזֵר לֽוֹ׃

For he will deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper.

13 יָחֹס עַל־דַּל וְאֶבְיוֹן וְנַפְשׁוֹת אֶבְיוֹנִים יוֹשִֽׁיעַ׃

He will have pity on the poor and needy, and the souls of the needy he will save.

14 מִתּוֹךְ וּמֵחָמָס יִגְאַל נַפְשָׁם וְיֵיקַר דָּמָם בְּעֵינָֽיו׃

He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence, and precious will their blood be in his sight;

15 וִיחִי וְיִתֶּן־לוֹ מִזְּהַב שְׁבָא וְיִתְפַּלֵּל בַּעֲדוֹ תָמִיד כׇּל־הַיּוֹם יְבָרְכֶֽנְהוּ׃

That they may live, and that he may give them of the gold of Sheba, that they may pray for him continually, yea, bless him all the day.

16 יְהִי פִסַּת־בַּר ׀ בָּאָרֶץ בְּרֹאשׁ הָרִים יִרְעַשׁ כַּלְּבָנוֹן פִּרְיוֹ וְיָצִיצוּ מֵעִיר כְּעֵשֶׂב הָאָֽרֶץ׃

May he be as a rich cornfield in the land upon the top of the mountains; may his fruit rustle like Lebanon; and may they blossom out of the city like grass of the earth.

17 יְהִי שְׁמוֹ ׀ לְֽעוֹלָם לִפְנֵי־שֶׁמֶשׁ (ינין) [יִנּוֹן] שְׁמוֹ וְיִתְבָּרְכוּ בוֹ כׇּל־גּוֹיִם יְאַשְּׁרֽוּהוּ׃

May his name endure for ever; may his name be continued as long as the sun; may men also bless themselves by him; may all nations call him happy.

18 בָּרוּךְ ׀ יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהִים אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל עֹשֵׂה נִפְלָאוֹת לְבַדּֽוֹ׃

Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things;

19 וּבָרוּךְ ׀ שֵׁם כְּבוֹדוֹ לְעוֹלָם וְיִמָּלֵא כְבוֹדוֹ אֶת־כֹּל הָאָרֶץ אָמֵן ׀ וְאָמֵֽן׃

And blessed be His glorious name for ever; and let the whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen, and Amen.

20 כָּלּוּ תְפִלּוֹת דָּוִד בֶּן־יִשָֽׁי׃

The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
