Psalm 72:7-18

7In his days may the righteous flourish and prosperity abound till the moon is no more.

8May he rule from sea to sea and from the River That is, the Euphrates to the ends of the earth.

9May the desert tribes bow before him and his enemies lick the dust.

10May the kings of Tarshish and of distant shores bring tribute to him. May the kings of Sheba and Seba present him gifts.

11May all kings bow down to him and all nations serve him.

12For he will deliver the needy who cry out, the afflicted who have no one to help.

13He will take pity on the weak and the needy and save the needy from death.

14He will rescue them from oppression and violence, for precious is their blood in his sight.

15Long may he live! May gold from Sheba be given him. May people ever pray for him and bless him all day long.

16May grain abound throughout the land; on the tops of the hills may it sway. May the crops flourish like Lebanon and thrive Probable reading of the original Hebrew text; Masoretic Text Lebanon, / from the city like the grass of the field.

17May his name endure forever; may it continue as long as the sun. Then all nations will be blessed through him, Or will use his name in blessings (see Gen. 48:20) and they will call him blessed.

18Praise be to the LORD God, the God of Israel, who alone does marvelous deeds.
