Psalm 72:14–16

14 He will rescue them from oppression and violence,

for precious is their blood in his sight.

15 Long may he live!

May gold from Sheba be given him.

May people ever pray for him

and bless him all day long.

16 May grain abound throughout the land;

on the tops of the hills may it sway.

May the crops flourish like Lebanon

and thrive like the grass of the field.

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.

14 He will redeem them from oppression and violence,

for their lives are precious to him.

15 Long live the king!

May the gold of Sheba be given to him.

May the people always pray for him

and bless him all day long.

16 May there be abundant grain throughout the land,

flourishing even on the hilltops.

May the fruit trees flourish like the trees of Lebanon,

and may the people thrive like grass in a field.

14 He will redeem their life from oppression and violence;

And precious shall be their blood in His sight.

15 And He shall live;

And the gold of Sheba will be given to Him;

Prayer also will be made for Him continually,

And daily He shall be praised.

16 There will be an abundance of grain in the earth,

On the top of the mountains;

Its fruit shall wave like Lebanon;

And those of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.

14 He will save them from cruel people who try to hurt them,

because their lives are precious to him.

15 Long live the king!

Let him receive gold from Sheba.

Let people always pray for him

and bless him all day long.

16 Let the fields grow plenty of grain

and the hills be covered with crops.

Let the land be as fertile as Lebanon,

and let the cities grow like the grass in a field.

14 He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence;

And precious will their blood be in his sight:

15 And they shall live; and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba:

And men shall pray for him continually;

They shall bless him all the day long.

16 There shall be abundance of grain 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.

14 He will redeem their souls from oppression 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; and prayer shall be made for him continually: all the day shall he be blessed. 16 There shall be abundance of corn in the earth, upon the top of the mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon; and they of the city shall bloom like the herb of the earth.

14 He will rescue them from oppression and violence. 

Their blood will be precious in his sight. 

15 May he live long. 

May the gold from Sheba be given to him. 

May ⸤the people⸥ pray for him continually. 

May ⸤they⸥ praise him all day long. 

16 May there be plenty of grain in the land. 

May it wave ⸤in the breeze⸥ on the mountain tops, 

its fruit like ⸤the treetops of⸥ Lebanon. 

May those from the city flourish like the grass on the ground. 

14 He will redeem them from oppression and violence,

for their lives are precious in his sight.

15 May he live long!

May gold from Sheba be given to him.

May prayer be offered for him continually,

and may he be blessed all day long.

16 May there be plenty of grain in the land;

may it wave on the tops of the mountains.

May its crops be like Lebanon.

May people flourish in the cities

like the grass of the field.

14 From oppression and violence he redeems their life,

and precious is their blood in his sight.

15 Long may he live!

May gold of Sheba be given to him.

May prayer be made for him continually

and blessings invoked for him all day long.

16 May there be abundance of grain in the land;

may it wave on the tops of the mountains;

may its fruit be like Lebanon;

and may people blossom in the cities

like the grass of the field.

14 From oppression and from violence

he will redeem their lives,

and their blood will be precious in his eyes.

15 So may he live, and may gold from Sheba be given to him,

and may prayers be offered for him continually.

May blessings be invoked for him all day long.

16 May there be an abundance of grain in the land

even on the top of the mountains.

May his crop sway like the trees of Lebanon,

and may those from the city blossom like the grass of the earth.

14 He will save them from people who beat others down.

He will save them from people who do mean things to them.

Their lives are very special to him.

15 May he live a long time!

May gold from Sheba be given to him.

May people always pray for him.

May they ask the Lord to bless him all day long.

16 Let there be plenty of grain everywhere in the land.

May it sway in the wind on the tops of the hills.

Let crops grow well, like those in Lebanon.

Let them grow like the grass of the field.

14 He will rescue their life from oppression and violence,

And their blood will be precious in his sight;

15 So may he live, and may the gold of Sheba be given to him;

And let them pray for him continually;

Let them bless him all day long.

16 May there be abundance of grain in the earth on top of the mountains;

Its fruit will wave like the cedars of Lebanon;

And may those from the city flourish like vegetation of the earth.
