­PSA 72:1  Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto the

 king's son.

 

­PSA 72:2  He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with

 judgment.

 

­PSA 72:3  The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills,

 by righteousness.

 

­PSA 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.

 

­PSA 72:5  They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout

 all generations.

 

­PSA 72:6  He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that

 water the earth.

 

­PSA 72:7  In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so

 long as the moon endureth.

 

­PSA 72:8  He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto

 the ends of the earth.

 

­PSA 72:9  They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him; and his

 enemies shall lick the dust.

 

­PSA 72:10  The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the

 kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.

 

­PSA 72:11  Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve

 him.

 

­PSA 72:12  For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and

 him that hath no helper.

 

­PSA 72:13  He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the

 needy.

 

­PSA 72:14  He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious

 shall their blood be in his sight.

 

­PSA 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.

 

­PSA 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.

 

­PSA 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.

 

­PSA 72:18  Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous

 things.

 

­PSA 72:19  And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth

 be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.

 

­PSA 72:20  The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
