1God, give the king your justice;
2He will judge your people with righteousness,
3The mountains shall bring prosperity to the people.
4He will judge the poor of the people.
5They shall fear you while the sun endures;
6He will come down like rain on the mown grass,
7In his days, the righteous shall flourish,
8He shall have dominion also from sea to sea,
9Those who dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him.
10The kings of Tarshish and of the islands will bring tribute.
11Yes, all kings shall fall down before him.
12For he will deliver the needy when he cries;
13He will have pity on the poor and needy.
14He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence.
15He will live; and Sheba’s gold will be given to him.
16Abundance of grain shall be throughout the land.
17His name endures forever.
18Praise be to the LORD God, the God of Israel,
19Blessed be his glorious name forever!
20This ends the prayers by David, the son of Jesse.
