Book of Psalms
Psalm 72
72:1
Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy
righteousness unto the king's son.
72:2 He shall judge thy people with righteousness,
and thy poor with judgment.
72:3 The mountains shall bring peace to the people,
and the little hills, by righteousness.
72:4 He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall
save the children of the needy, and shall break in
pieces the oppressor.
72:5 They shall fear thee as long as the sun and
moon endure, throughout all generations.
72:6 He shall come down like rain upon the mown
grass: as showers that water the earth.
72:7 In his days shall the righteous flourish; and
abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth.
72:8 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea,
and from the river unto the ends of the earth.
72:9 They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow
before him; and his enemies shall lick the dust.
72:10 The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall
bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall
offer gifts.
72:11 Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all
nations shall serve him.
72:12 For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth;
the poor also, and him that hath no helper.
72:13 He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall
save the souls of the needy.
72:14 He shall redeem their soul from deceit and
violence: and precious shall their blood be in his
sight.
72:15 And he shall live, and to him shall be given
of the gold of Sheba: prayer also shall be made for
him continually; and daily shall he be praised.
72:16 There shall be an handful of corn in the earth
upon the top of the mountains; the fruit thereof
shall shake like Lebanon: and they of the city shall
flourish like grass of the earth.
72:17 His name shall endure for ever: his name shall
be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be
blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.
72:18 Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel,
who only doeth wondrous things.
72:19 And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and
let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen,
and Amen.
72:20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are
ended.
