[1] Give the king Your judgments, O God, And Your righteousness to the king's Son. [2] He will judge Your people with righteousness, And Your poor with justice. [3] The mountains will bring peace to the people, And the little hills, by righteousness. [4] He will bring justice to the poor of the people; He will save the children of the needy, And will break in pieces the oppressor. [5] They shall fear You As long as the sun and moon endure, Throughout all generations. [6] He shall come down like rain upon the grass before mowing, Like showers that water the earth. [7] In His days the righteous shall flourish, And abundance of peace, Until the moon is no more. [8] He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, And from the River to the ends of the earth. [9] Those who dwell in the wilderness will bow before Him, And His enemies will lick the dust. [10] The kings of Tarshish and of the isles Will bring presents; The kings of Sheba and Seba Will offer gifts. [11] Yes, all kings shall fall down before Him; All nations shall serve Him. [12] For He will deliver the needy when he cries, The poor also, and him who has no helper. [13] He will spare the poor and needy, And will save the souls of the needy. [14] He will redeem their life from oppression and violence; And precious shall be their blood in His sight. [15] And He shall live; And the gold of Sheba will be given to Him; Prayer also will be made for Him continually, And daily He shall be praised. [16] There will be an abundance of grain in the earth, On the top of the mountains; Its fruit shall wave like Lebanon; And those of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth. [17] His name shall endure forever; His name shall continue as long as the sun. And men shall be blessed in Him; All nations shall call Him blessed. [18] Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, Who only does wondrous things! [19] And blessed be His glorious name forever! And let the whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen and Amen. [20] The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
