| 1. | By Solomon. God, give the king your justice; Your righteousness to the royal son. |
| 2. | He will judge your people with righteousness, And your poor with justice. |
| 3. | The mountains shall bring prosperity to the people; The hills bring the fruit of righteousness. |
| 4. | He will judge the poor of the people. He will save the children of the needy, And will break the oppressor in pieces. |
| 5. | They shall fear you while the sun endures; And as long as the moon, throughout all generations. |
| 6. | He will come down like rain on the mown grass, As showers that water the earth. |
| 7. | In his days, the righteous shall flourish, And abundance of peace, until the moon is no more. |
| 8. | He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, From the River to the ends of the earth. |
| 9. | Those who dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him. His enemies shall lick the dust. |
| 10. | The kings of Tarshish and of the isles will bring tribute. The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts. |
| 11. | Yes, all kings shall fall down before him. All nations shall serve him. |
| 12. | For he will deliver the needy when he cries; The poor, who has no helper. |
| 13. | He will have pity on the poor and needy. He will save the souls of the needy. |
| 14. | He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence. Their blood will be precious in his sight. |
| 15. | They shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba. Men shall pray for him continually. They shall bless him all day long. |
| 16. | There shall be abundance of grain throughout the land. Its fruit sways like Lebanon. Let it flourish, thriving like the grass of the field. |
| 17. | His name endures forever. His name continues as long as the sun. Men shall be blessed by him. All nations will call him blessed. |
| 18. | Praise be to Yahweh God, the God of Israel, Who alone does marvelous deeds. |
| 19. | Blessed be his glorious name forever! Let the whole earth be filled with his glory! Amen and amen. |
| 20. | This ends the prayers by David, the son of Jesse. |
