Psalms 72:11-17

¹¹May all kings fall prostrate before him, and all nations yield him their service.

¹²For he saves the poor when he cries, the helpless and the downtrodden.

¹³He pities the weak and the poor, he saves the lives of the poor.

¹⁴He redeems them from wrong and from violence, for dear is their blood in his sight.

¹⁵Long may he live; and may gold of Sheba be given him; prayer, too, be made for him ceaselessly, all the day long may men bless him.

¹⁶May the land have abundance of corn, to the tops of the hills may it wave. May the fruit thereof flourish like Lebanon, may men spring from the city like grass of the earth.

¹⁷May his name be blessed forever, may his fame endure as the sun. May all nations envy his blessedness, all tribes of the earth call him happy.
