_1. Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto the king's son. _2. He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment. _3. The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills, by righteousness. _4. He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor. _5. They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations. _6. He shall 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 so long as the moon endureth. _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 bring presents: 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 shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper. _13. He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy. _14. He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight. _15. And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: prayer also shall be made for him continually; and daily shall he be praised. _16. There shall be an handful of corn 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 blessed. _18. Blessed be the LORD 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.
