The Bible in Living English
Psalm 72:1-20

Psalms

(Of Solomon’s.)

72 God, give a king your justice,

a king’s son your right-dealing!

2 He will give his verdicts to your people rightly

and to your downtrodden justly.

3 Mountains shall carry peace for the people,

and hills, by right.

4 He will do justice for downtrodden classes,

will save sons of poverty,

and will beat down a refuser of rights.

5 He shall last along with the sun,

and before the moon for a cycle of generations.

6 He shall come down like rain on mowings,

like showers drenching earth.

7 In his days right will flower

and plentiful peace till there shall be no moon.

8 And he shall have the mastery from sea to sea

and from the River to ends of earth.

9 Before him foes shall stoop

and his enemies shall lick dust.

10 Kings of Spain and islands shall pay him tribute,

kings of Sheba and Seba present gratuities,

11 And all kings shall do him reverence,

all nations be subject to him.

12 For he shall deliver needy suppliant

and downtrodden man and man whom none will help,

13 He shall have mercy on poor man and needy

and save needy men’s lives,

14 From extortion and outrage he shall protect their lives,

and deem their blood worth his attention,

15 That he may live and may be given gold from Sheba

and that they may pray for him continually,

may bless him all the day,

16 There may be plenty of grain in the country,

shaking on mountaintops,

His fruit may be like that of the Lebanon

and the offspring of his body like the herbage of the earth.

17 Be his name forever,

before the sun be his name set firm,

And may they bless by him,

all nations proclaim his happiness!

18 Blessed be Jehovah God, Israel’s God,

who alone does wonders,

19 And blessed be his glorious name forever

and be all the earth filled with his glory!

Amen and amen!

20 End of the prayers of David the son of Jesse.
