Psalm 72:15-17

Good News Translation

¹⁵ Long live the king!
    May he be given gold from Sheba;^[a]
    may prayers be said for him at all times;
    may God's blessings be on him always!
¹⁶ May there be plenty of grain in the land;
    may the hills be covered with crops,
    as fruitful as those of Lebanon.
May the cities be filled with people,
    like fields full of grass.
¹⁷ May the king's name never be forgotten;
    may his fame last as long as the sun.
May all nations ask God to bless them
    as he has blessed the king.^[b]
