A psalm written by Solomon. O God, enable [me, ] the king [whom you appointed in Israel], to rule justly. Show/Teach me how to judge matters fairly
2 Ka viņš Tavus ļaudis tiesā ar taisnību, un Tavus bēdīgos ar tiesu.
in order that I will judge your people fairly, that I will govern your oppressed people justly.

6 Viņš nolaidīsies kā lietus uz zāli, kā lāses, kas zemi slacina.

I hope/desire that the fields will produce plenty of grain [everywhere, even] on the tops of the hills in the land where they rule, like the grain that grows [on the hills] in Lebanon. I hope/desire that the cities [in Israel] will be full of people like the fields are full of grass.
17 Viņa vārds paliks mūžīgi; kamēr saule būs, Viņa vārds augļosies, un iekš Viņa svētīsies; visi pagāni Viņu slavēs.
I desire that the names of our kings will never be forgotten. I hope/desire that people will remember them as long as the sun shines. I hope/desire that people of all nations will ask (God to bless them/that they will be blessed by God) just like he has blessed the kings [of Israel].
