Psalm 72:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 He shall redeem their souls from deceit and violence, and [a]dear shall their blood be in his sight.
15 Yea, he shall live, and unto him shall they give of the [b]gold of Sheba: they shall also pray for him continually, and daily bless him.
16 An handful of corn shall be sown in the earth, even in the top of the mountains, and the [c]fruit thereof shalt shake like the trees of Lebanon: and the children shall flourish out of the city like the grass of the earth.
