8May he also rule from sea to sea
         And from the River to the ends of the earth.

9Let the nomads of the desert bow before him,
         And his enemies lick the dust.

10Let the kings of Tarshish and of the islands bring presents;
         The kings of Sheba and Seba offer gifts.

11And let all kings bow down before him,
         All nations serve him.

12For he will deliver the needy when he cries for help,
         The afflicted also, and him who has no helper.

13He will have compassion on the poor and needy,
         And the lives of the needy he will save.

14He will rescue their life from oppression and violence,
         And their blood will be precious in his sight;

15So 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.

16May 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.

17May his name endure forever;
         May his name increase as long as the sun shines;
         And let men bless themselves by him;
         Let all nations call him blessed.

18Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel,
         Who alone works wonders.

19And blessed be His glorious name forever;
         And may the whole earth be filled with His glory.
         Amen, and Amen.

20The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
