Psalm 72:15-17
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
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.(A)
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.(B)
17 May his name endure forever,
his fame continue as long as the sun.
May all nations be blessed in him;[a]
may they pronounce him happy.(C)
