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

16 May there be abundance of grain in 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 (C)vegetation of the earth.
17 May his (D)name endure forever;
May his name [c]increase [d](E)as long as the sun shines;
And let men (F)bless themselves by him;
(G)Let all nations call him blessed.
