May the king rule everywhere,
    from sea to sea,
    and from the Euphrates river to the ends of the earth.[a]
Then people who live in the desert
    will bend down to respect him.
His enemies will fall down
    with their faces in the dust.
10 Kings from Spain and from other far places
    will pay taxes to him.
Kings from Sheba and from Seba
    will bring gifts to him.
