15 So may he live! And may they give to him the (A)gold of Sheba;
And let each pray for him continually;
Let each bless him all day long.

May its fruit wave like the cedars of (B)Lebanon;
And may those from the city blossom like (C)vegetation of the earth.
17 May his (D)name endure forever;
May his name [a]increase [b](E)as long as the sun shines;
Let all nations [c](F)be blessed in him;
(G)Let all nations call him blessed.
