{A
Psalm of Solomon}
1
Give the king Your judgments, O 'Elohiym/Godhead,
and
Your righteousness unto the king's son.
2
He shall judge your people with righteousness,
and
your 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 you 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 endures.
8
He shall have dominion also from sea to sea,
and
from the river unto the ends of the earth.
9
Those who 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
Yes, all kings shall fall down before Him.
All
nations shall serve Him.
12
For he shall deliver the needy when he cries;
the
poor also,
and
him who has 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
those of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.
17
His name shall endure forever.
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 Jehovah/God 'Elohiym/Godhead,
the
'Elohiym/Godhead of Israel,
Who
only does wondrous things.
19
And blessed be His glorious name forever
and
let the whole earth be filled with his glory;
Amen,
and Amen.
{Doubling is very strong in the Hebrew -
I believe . . . yes truly I believe}
20
The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
