Book 27 : KETUVIM - PSALMS - Chapter 072
72:001
A Psalm of Solomon. Give the king Thy judgments, O G-d, and
Thy righteousness unto the king's son
72:002
That he may judge Thy people with righteousness, and Thy
poor with justice
72:003
Let the mountains bear peace to the people, and the hills,
through righteousness
72:004
May he judge the poor of the people, and save the children
of the needy, and crush the oppressor
72:005
They shall fear Thee while the sun endureth, and so long as
the moon, throughout all generations
72:006
May he come down like rain upon the mown grass, as showers
that water the earth
72:007
In his days let the righteous flourish, and abundance of
peace, till the moon be no more
72:008
May he have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the
River unto the ends of the earth
72:009
Let them that dwell in the wilderness bow before him; and
his enemies lick the dust
72:010
The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall render
tribute; the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts
72:011
Yea, all kings shall prostrate themselves before him; all
nations shall serve him
72:012
For he will deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor
also, and him that hath no helper
72:013
He will have pity on the poor and needy, and the souls of
the needy he will save
72:014
He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence,
and precious will their blood be in his sight
72:015
That they may live, and that he may give them of the gold
of Sheba, that they may pray for him continually, yea, bless him all the day
72:016
May he be as a rich cornfield in the land upon the top of
the mountains; may his fruit rustle like Lebanon; and may they blossom out of
the city like grass of the earth
72:017
May his name endure for ever; may his name be continued as
long as the sun; may men also bless themselves by him; may all nations call him
happy
72:018
Blessed be HaShem G-d, the G-d of Israel, who only doeth
wondrous things
72:019
And blessed be His glorious name for ever; and let the
whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen, and Amen
72:020
The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended
