| 1. | Give the king thy judgments, O God, And thy righteousness unto the king's son. |
| 2. | He will judge thy people with righteousness, And thy poor with justice. |
| 3. | The mountains shall bring peace to the people, And the hills, in righteousness. |
| 4. | He will judge the poor of the people, He will save the children of the needy, And will break in pieces the oppressor. |
| 5. | They shall fear thee while the sun endureth, And so long as the moon, throughout all generations. |
| 6. | He will come down like rain upon the mown grass, As showers that water the earth. |
| 7. | In his days shall the righteous flourish, And abundance of peace, till the moon be no more. |
| 8. | He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, And from the River unto the ends of the earth. |
| 9. | They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him; And his enemies shall lick the dust. |
| 10. | The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall render tribute: The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts. |
| 11. | Yea, all kings shall fall down before him; All nations shall serve him. |
| 12. | For he will deliver the needy when he crieth, And the poor, that hath no helper. |
| 13. | He will have pity on the poor and needy, And the souls of the needy he will save. |
| 14. | He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence; And precious will their blood be in his sight: |
| 15. | And they shall live; and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: And men shall pray for him continually; They shall bless him all the day long. |
| 16. | There shall be abundance of grain in the earth upon the top of the mountains; The fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: And they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth. |
| 17. | His name shall endure for ever; His name shall be continued as long as the sun: And men shall be blessed in him; All nations shall call him happy. |
| 18. | Blessed be Jehovah God, the God of Israel, Who only doeth wondrous things: |
| 19. | And blessed be his glorious name for ever; And let the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen, and Amen. |
| 20. | The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended. Psalm 73 A Psalm of Asaph. |
