Psalm 72:16-18
Legacy Standard Bible
16 May there be abundance of grain in the earth on top of the mountains;
May its fruit wave like the cedars of (A)Lebanon;
And may those from the city blossom like (B)vegetation of the earth.
17 May his (C)name endure forever;
May his name [a]increase [b](D)as long as the sun shines;
Let all nations [c](E)be blessed in him;
(F)Let all nations call him blessed.
