Psalm 72:3-8
Holman Christian Standard Bible
3 May the mountains bring prosperity[a] to the people
and the hills, righteousness.(A)
4 May he vindicate the afflicted among the people,
help the poor,
and crush the oppressor.(B)
5 May he continue[b] while the sun endures
and as long as the moon, throughout all generations.(C)
6 May he be like rain that falls on the cut grass,
like spring showers that water the earth.(D)
7 May the righteous[c] flourish in his days
and prosperity[d] abound
until the moon is no more.(E)
8 May he rule from sea to sea
and from the Euphrates
to the ends of the earth.(F)
