Psalms 72:10-17
101May the kings of 2Tarshish and of the 34islands bring gifts; May the kings of 5Sheba and 6Seba 7offer tributes.118And may all 9kings bow down before him, All 10nations serve him.
12For he will 11save the needy when he cries for help, The 12afflicted also, and him who has no helper.13He will have 13compassion on the poor and needy, And he will save the 14lives of the needy.14He will 1516rescue their 17life from oppression and violence, And their blood will be 18precious in his sight;15So may he live, and may the 19gold of Sheba be given to him; And 20they are to pray for him continually; 21They are to bless him all day long.
16May there be abundance of grain on the earth on top of the mountains; Its fruit will wave like the cedars of 22Lebanon; And may those from the city flourish like the 23vegetation of the earth.17May his 24name endure forever; May his name produce descendants 2526as long as the sun shines; And may people 27wish blessings on themselves by him; 28May all nations call him blessed.
