Psalm 72:10-20
New American Standard Bible 1995
10 [a]Let the kings of (A)Tarshish and of the [b](B)islands bring presents;
The kings of (C)Sheba and (D)Seba (E)offer [c]gifts.
11 [d]And let all (F)kings bow down before him,
All (G)nations serve him.
12 For he will (H)deliver the needy when he cries for help,
The [e]afflicted also, and him who has no helper.
13 He will have (I)compassion on the poor and needy,
And the [f]lives of the needy he will save.
14 He will [g](J)rescue their [h]life from oppression and violence,
And their blood will be (K)precious in his sight;
15 So may he live, and may the (L)gold of Sheba be given to him;
And let [i]them pray for him continually;
Let [j]them bless him all day long.
16 May there be abundance of grain in the earth on top of the mountains;
Its fruit will wave like the cedars of (M)Lebanon;
And may those from the city flourish like (N)vegetation of the earth.
17 May his (O)name endure forever;
May his name [k]increase [l](P)as long as the sun shines;
And let men (Q)bless themselves by him;
(R)Let all nations call him blessed.
18 (S)Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel,
Who alone (T)works wonders.
19 And blessed be His (U)glorious name forever;
And may the whole (V)earth be filled with His glory.
(W)Amen, and Amen.
20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
