The Grace of God

Psalm 72 Of Solomon.
1: Endow the king with your justice, O God, the royal son with your righteousness.
2: He will ^[1] judge your people in righteousness, your afflicted ones with justice.
3: The mountains will bring prosperity to the people, the hills the fruit of righteousness.
4: He will defend the afflicted among the people and save the children of the needy; he will crush the oppressor.
5: He will endure ^[2] as long as the sun, as long as the moon, through all generations.
6: He will be like rain falling on a mown field, like showers watering the earth.
7: In his days the righteous will flourish; prosperity will abound till the moon is no more.
8: He will rule from sea to sea and from the River ^[3] to the ends of the earth. ^[4]
9: The desert tribes will bow before him and his enemies will lick the dust.
10: The kings of Tarshish and of distant shores will bring tribute to him; the kings of Sheba and Seba will present him gifts.
11: All kings will bow down to him and all nations will serve him.
12: For he will deliver the needy who cry out, the afflicted who have no one to help.
13: He will take pity on the weak and the needy and save the needy from death.
14: He will rescue them from oppression and violence, for precious is their blood in his sight.
15: Long may he live! May gold from Sheba be given him. May people ever pray for him and bless him all day long.
16: Let grain abound throughout the land; on the tops of the hills may it sway. Let its fruit flourish like Lebanon; let it thrive like the grass of the field.
17: May his name endure forever; may it continue as long as the sun. All nations will be blessed through him, and they will call him blessed.
18: Praise be to the LORD God, the God of Israel, who alone does marvelous deeds.
19: Praise be to his glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen and Amen.
20: This concludes the prayers of David son of Jesse.
