Psalm 72

Give the King thy judgements, O God  *

and thy righteousness unto the King’s son.

Then shall he judge thy people according unto right *

and defend the poor.

The mountains also shall bring peace *

and the little hills righteousness unto the people.

He shall keep the simple folk by their right *

defend the children of the poor, and punish the wrong-doer.

They shall fear thee, as long as the sun and moon endureth *

from one generation to another.

He shall come down like the rain into a fleece of wool *

even as the drops that water the earth.

In his time shall the righteous flourish *

yea, and abundance of peace, so long as the moon endureth.

Blessed be the Lord God, even the God of Israel *

which only doeth wondrous things;

And blessed be the Name of his majesty for ever *

and all the earth shall be filled with his majesty. Amen, Amen.
