1. A Psalm of Solomon. Give the king Your judgments, O God, And Your righteousness to the king's Son. | |
2. He will judge Your people with righteousness, And Your poor with justice. | |
3. The mountains will bring peace to the people, And the little hills, by righteousness. | |
4. He will bring justice to the poor of the people; He will save the children of the needy, And will break in pieces the oppressor. | |
5. They shall fear You As long as the sun and moon endure, Throughout all generations. | |
6. He shall come down like rain upon the grass before mowing, Like showers that water the earth. | |
7. In His days the righteous shall flourish, And abundance of peace, Until the moon is no more. | |
8. He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, And from the River to the ends of the earth. | |
9. Those who dwell in the wilderness will bow before Him, And His enemies will lick the dust. | |
10. The kings of Tarshish and of the isles Will bring presents; The kings of Sheba and Seba Will offer gifts. | |
11. Yes, all kings shall fall down before Him; All nations shall serve Him. | |
12. For He will deliver the needy when he cries, The poor also, and him who has no helper. Image | |
13. He will spare the poor and needy, And will save the souls of the needy. | |
14. He will redeem their life from oppression and violence; And precious shall be their blood in His sight. | |
15. And He shall live; And the gold of Sheba will be given to Him; Prayer also will be made for Him continually, And daily He shall be praised. | |
16. There will be an abundance of grain in the earth, On the top of the mountains; Its fruit shall wave like Lebanon; And those of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth. | |
17. His name shall endure forever; His name shall continue as long as the sun. And men shall be blessed in Him; All nations shall call Him blessed. | |
18. Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel, Who only does wondrous things! | |
19. And blessed be His glorious name forever! And let the whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen and Amen. | |
20. The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended. |
