Psalms 72:4-8
41May he 2vindicate the 3afflicted of the people, Save the children of the needy And crush the oppressor.
54Let them fear You 5while the sun endures, And 6as long as the moon, throughout all generations.67May he come down 8like rain upon the mown grass, Like 9showers that water the earth.7In his days 10may the 11righteous flourish, And 12abundance of peace till the moon is no more.
8May he also rule 13from sea to sea And from the River to the ends of the earth.
