14 He will rescue(A) them from oppression and violence,
    for precious(B) is their blood in his sight.

15 Long may he live!
    May gold from Sheba(C) be given him.
May people ever pray for him
    and bless him all day long.(D)
16 May grain(E) abound throughout the land;
    on the tops of the hills may it sway.
May the crops(F) flourish like Lebanon(G)
    and thrive[a] like the grass of the field.(H)
