15 So may he live, and may gold from Sheba be given to him,
and may prayers be offered for him continually.
May blessings be invoked for him all day long.[a]
16 May there be an abundance of grain in the land
even on the top of the mountains.
May his crop[b] sway like the trees of Lebanon,
and may those from the city blossom like the grass of the earth.
17 May his name endure forever.
May his name increase as long as the sun shines,[c]
and let them be blessed in him.
Let all nations call him blessed.
