Psalm 72 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Psa 72:1By Shlomo. God, give the king your justice; Your righteousness to the royal son.
Psa 72:2He will judge your people with righteousness, And your poor with justice.
Psa 72:3The mountains shall bring prosperity to the people. The hills bring the fruit of righteousness.
Psa 72:4He will judge the poor of the people. He will save the children of the needy, And will break the oppressor in pieces.
Psa 72:5They shall fear you while the sun endures; And as long as the moon, throughout all generations.
Psa 72:6He will come down like rain on the mown grass, As showers that water the eretz.
Psa 72:7In his days, the righteous shall flourish, And abundance of shalom, until the moon is no more.
Psa 72:8He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, From the River to the ends of the eretz.
Psa 72:9Those who dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him. His enemies shall lick the dust.
Psa 72:10The kings of Tarshish and of the isles will bring tribute. The kings of Sheva and Seva shall offer gifts.
Psa 72:11Yes, all kings shall fall down before him. All nations shall serve him.
Psa 72:12For he will deliver the needy when he cries; The poor, who has no helper.
Psa 72:13He will have pity on the poor and needy. He will save the souls of the needy.
Psa 72:14He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence. Their blood will be precious in his sight.
Psa 72:15They shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheva. Men shall pray for him continually. They shall bless him all day long.
Psa 72:16There shall be abundance of grain throughout the land. Its fruit sways like Levanon. Let it flourish, thriving like the grass of the field.
Psa 72:17His name endures forever. His name continues as long as the sun. Men shall be blessed by him. All nations will call him blessed.
Psa 72:18Praise be to the LORD God, the God of Yisra'el, Who alone does marvelous deeds.
Psa 72:19Blessed be his glorious name forever! Let the whole eretz be filled with his glory! Amein and amein.
