Psalms 72:16-17

16May there be abundance of grain in the earth on top of the mountains; Its fruit will wave like the cedars of 1Lebanon; And may those from the city flourish like 2vegetation of the earth.17May his 3name endure forever; May his name 4increase 5 6as long as the sun shines; And let men 7bless themselves by him; 8Let all nations call him blessed.
