72:1 A psalm on Solomon.

72:1 in Salomonem

72:2 Give to the king thy judgment, O God, and to the king's son thy justice: To judge thy people with justice, and thy poor with judgment.

72:2 Deus iudicium tuum regi da et iustitiam tuam filio regis iudicare populum tuum in iustitia et pauperes tuos in iudicio

72:3 Let the mountains receive peace for the people: and the hills justice.

72:3 suscipiant montes pacem populo et colles iustitiam

72:4 He shall judge the poor of the people, and he shall save the children of the poor: and he shall humble the oppressor.

72:4 iudicabit pauperes populi et salvos faciet filios pauperum et humiliabit calumniatorem

72:5 And he shall continue with the sun and before the moon, throughout all generations.

72:5 et permanebit cum sole et ante lunam generationes generationum

72:6 He shall come down like rain upon the fleece; and as showers falling gently upon the earth.

72:6 descendet sicut pluvia in vellus et sicut stillicidia stillantia super terram

72:7 In his days shall justice spring up, and abundance of peace, till the moon be taken away.

72:7 orietur in diebus eius iustitia et abundantia pacis donec auferatur luna

72:8 And he shall rule from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.

72:8 et dominabitur a mari usque ad mare et a flumine usque ad terminos orbis terrarum

72:9 Before him the Ethiopians shall fall down: and his enemies shall lick the ground.

72:9 coram illo procident Aethiopes et inimici eius terram lingent

72:10 The kings of Tharsis and the islands shall offer presents: the kings of the Arabians and of Saba shall bring gifts:

72:10 reges Tharsis et insulae munera offerent reges Arabum et Saba dona adducent

72:11 And all kings of the earth shall adore him: all nations shall serve him.

72:11 et adorabunt eum omnes reges omnes gentes servient ei

72:12 For he shall deliver the poor from the mighty: and the needy that had no helper.

72:12 quia liberavit pauperem a potente et pauperem cui non erat adiutor

72:13 He shall spare the poor and needy: and he shall save the souls of the poor.

72:13 parcet pauperi et inopi et animas pauperum salvas faciet

72:14 He shall redeem their souls from usuries and iniquity: and their names shall be honourable in his sight.

72:14 ex usuris et iniquitate redimet animas eorum et honorabile nomen eorum coram illo

72:15 And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Arabia, for him they shall always adore: they shall bless him all the day.

72:15 et vivet et dabitur ei de auro Arabiae et orabunt de ipso semper tota die benedicent ei

72:16 And there shall be a firmament on the earth on the tops of mountains, above Libanus shall the fruit thereof be exalted: and they of the city shall flourish like the grass of the earth.

72:16 erit firmamentum in terra in summis montium superextolletur super Libanum fructus eius et florebunt de civitate sicut faenum terrae

72:17 Let his name be blessed for evermore: his name continueth before the sun. And in him shall all the tribes of the earth be blessed: all nations shall magnify him.

72:17 sit nomen eius benedictum in saecula ante solem permanet nomen eius et benedicentur in ipso omnes tribus terrae omnes gentes beatificabunt eum

72:18 Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who alone doth wonderful things.

72:18 benedictus Dominus Deus Deus Israhel qui facit mirabilia solus

72:19 And blessed be the name of his majesty for ever: and the whole earth shall be filled with his majesty. So be it. So be it.

72:19 et benedictum nomen maiestatis eius in aeternum et replebitur maiestate eius omnis terra fiat fiat

72:20 The praises of David, the son of Jesse, are ended.

72:20 defecerunt laudes David filii Iesse
