2 Samuel 23:4

4he adawns on them like the morning light,
like the sun shining forth on a cloudless morning,
like rain
Hebrew from rain
that makes grass to sprout from the earth.

Psalms 72

Give the King Your Justice

Of cSolomon.

1 Give the king your djustice, O God,
and your righteousness to the royal son!
2May he ejudge your people with righteousness,
and your poor with justice!
3Let the mountains bear fprosperity for the people,
and the hills, in righteousness!
4May he defend the cause of the poor of the people,
give deliverance to the children of the needy,
and crush the oppressor!
5 May they fear you
Septuagint He shall endure
while hthe sun endures,
and as long as the moon, ithroughout all generations!
6May he be like jrain that falls on kthe mown grass,
like lshowers that water the earth!
7In his days may mthe righteous flourish,
and npeace abound, till the moon be no more!
8 May he have dominion from osea to sea,
and from pthe River
That is,  the Euphrates
to the rends of the earth!
9May desert tribes sbow down before him,
and his enemies tlick the dust!
10May the kings of uTarshish and of vthe coastlands
render him wtribute;
may the kings of xSheba and ySeba
bring gifts!
11May all kings zfall down before him,
all nations serve him!
12 For he delivers aathe needy when he calls,
the poor and him who has no helper.
13He has pity on the weak and the needy,
and saves the lives of the needy.
14From oppression and violence he redeems their life,
and abprecious is their blood in his sight.
15 Long may he live;
may acgold of Sheba be given to him!
May prayer be made adfor him continually,
and blessings invoked for him all the day!
16May there be abundance of grain in the land;
on the tops of the mountains may it wave;
may its fruit be like Lebanon;
and may people aeblossom in the cities
like the afgrass of the field!
17 agMay his name endure forever,
his fame continue as long as the sun!
ahMay people be blessed in him,
aiall nations call him blessed!
18 ajBlessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,
who alone does akwondrous things.
19Blessed be his alglorious name forever;
may amthe whole earth be filled with his glory!

anAmen and Amen!
20 aoThe prayers of apDavid, the son of Jesse, are ended.
