Psalm 72:14-16
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
14 From extortion and violence he redeems them,
for precious is their blood[a] in his sight.
IV
15 Long may he live, receiving gold from Sheba,
prayed for without cease, blessed day by day.
16 [b]May wheat abound in the land,
flourish even on the mountain heights.
May his fruit be like that of Lebanon,
and flourish in the city like the grasses of the land.(A)
