15 So may he live, and may the (A)gold of Sheba be given to him;
And [a]they are to pray for him continually;
[b]They are to bless him all day long.

16 May there be abundance of grain on the earth on top of the mountains;
Its fruit will wave like the cedars of (B)Lebanon;
And may those from the city flourish like the (C)vegetation of the earth.
17 May his (D)name endure forever;
May his name produce descendants [c](E)as long as the sun shines;
And may people (F)wish blessings on themselves by him;
(G)May all nations call him blessed.
