Mga Awit 72
Magandang Balita Biblia
Panalangin para sa Hari
Katha ni Solomon.
72 Turuan mo po ang haring humatol nang makat'wiran,
sa taglay mong katarungan, O Diyos, siya'y bahaginan;
2 nang matuwid na tuparin tungkulin sa iyong bayan,
at pati sa mahihirap maging tapat siyang tunay.
3 Ang lupain nawa niya'y umunlad at managana;
maghari ang katarungan sa lupain nitong bansa.
4 Maging tapat itong hari sa paghatol sa mahirap,
mga nangangailangan, pag-ukulan ng paglingap;
at ang nang-aapi ay lupigin at ibagsak.
5 Nawa sila ay maglingkod, silang lahat mong hinirang,
hangga't araw sumisikat, hangga't buwa'y sumisilang.
6 Ang hari sana'y matulad sa ulan ng kaparangan;
bumubuhos, dumidilig sa lahat ng nabubuhay.
7 At ang buhay na matuwid sa kanyang kapanahunan,
maghari sa bansa niya't umunlad kailanpaman.
8 Nawa(A) kanyang kaharian ay lubusan ngang lumawak,
mula sa Ilog Eufrates, sa daigdig ay kakalat.
9 Sa harap niya ay susuko mga taong nasa ilang;
isubsob nga sa lupa, lahat ng kanyang kaaway.
10 Mga haring nasa pulo at naroon sa Espanya, maghahandog ng kaloob upang parangalan siya.
Pati rin ang mga hari ng Arabia at Etiopia, may mga kaloob ding ibibigay sa kanya.
11 Ang lahat ng mga hari, gagalang sa harap niya,
mga bansa'y magpupuri't maglilingkod sa tuwina.
12 Kanyang inililigtas ang mga dukhang tumatawag,
lalo na ang nalimutan, mga taong mahihirap;
13 sa ganitong mga tao siya'y lubhang nahahabag;
sa kanila tumutulong, upang sila ay maligtas.
14 Inaagaw niya sila sa kamay ng mararahas,
sa kanya ang buhay nila'y mahalagang hindi hamak.
15 Pagpalain itong hari! Siya nawa ay mabuhay!
At magbuhat sa Arabia'y magtamo ng gintong-yaman;
sa tuwina siya nawa'y idalangin nitong bayan,
kalingain nawa ng Diyos, pagpalain habang buhay.
16 Sa lupai'y sumagana nawang lagi ang pagkain;
ang lahat ng kaburulan ay mapuno ng pananim
at matulad sa Lebanon na mauunlad ang lupain.
At ang kanyang mga lunsod, dumami ang mamamayan,
sindami ng mga damong tumubo sa kaparangan.
17 Nawa ang kanyang pangalan ay huwag nang malimutan,
manatiling bantog hangga't sumisikat itong araw.
Nawa siya ay purihin ng lahat ng mga bansa, at sa Diyos, silang lahat dumalanging: “Harinawa,
pagpalain kaming lahat, tulad niyang pinagpala.”
18 Si Yahweh, Diyos ng Israel, purihin ng taong madla;
ang kahanga-hangang bagay tanging siya ang may gawa.
19 Ang dakilang ngalan niya ay purihin kailanman,
at siya ay dakilain nitong buong sanlibutan!
Amen! Amen!
20 Ito ang wakas ng mga dalangin ni David, na anak ni Jesse.
Psalm 72
New International Version
Psalm 72
Of Solomon.
1 Endow the king with your justice,(A) O God,
the royal son with your righteousness.
2 May he judge your people in righteousness,(B)
your afflicted ones with justice.
3 May the mountains bring prosperity to the people,
the hills the fruit of righteousness.
4 May he defend the afflicted(C) among the people
and save the children of the needy;(D)
may he crush the oppressor.(E)
5 May he endure[a](F) as long as the sun,
as long as the moon, through all generations.(G)
6 May he be like rain(H) falling on a mown field,
like showers watering the earth.
7 In his days may the righteous flourish(I)
and prosperity abound till the moon is no more.
8 May he rule from sea to sea
and from the River[b](J) to the ends of the earth.(K)
9 May the desert tribes bow before him
and his enemies lick the dust.
10 May the kings of Tarshish(L) and of distant shores(M)
bring tribute to him.
May the kings of Sheba(N) and Seba
present him gifts.(O)
11 May all kings bow down(P) to him
and all nations serve(Q) him.
12 For he will deliver the needy who cry out,
the afflicted who have no one to help.
13 He will take pity(R) on the weak and the needy
and save the needy from death.
14 He will rescue(S) them from oppression and violence,
for precious(T) is their blood in his sight.
15 Long may he live!
May gold from Sheba(U) be given him.
May people ever pray for him
and bless him all day long.(V)
16 May grain(W) abound throughout the land;
on the tops of the hills may it sway.
May the crops(X) flourish like Lebanon(Y)
and thrive[c] like the grass of the field.(Z)
17 May his name endure forever;(AA)
may it continue as long as the sun.(AB)
18 Praise be to the Lord God, the God of Israel,(AD)
who alone does marvelous deeds.(AE)
19 Praise be to his glorious name(AF) forever;
may the whole earth be filled with his glory.(AG)
Amen and Amen.(AH)
20 This concludes the prayers of David son of Jesse.(AI)

King James Version
72 Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto the king's son.
2 He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy 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 thee 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 endureth.
8 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.
9 They that 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 Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him.
12 For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath 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 they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.
17 His name shall endure for ever: 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 the Lord God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.
19 And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.
20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
