1 Of Solomon.
2 O God, give your judgment to the king;your justice to the king’s son;That he may govern your people with justice,your oppressed with right judgment,
3 That the mountains may yield their bounty for the people,and the hills great abundance,
4 That he may defend the oppressed among the people,save the children of the poor and crush the oppressor.
5 May they fear you with the sun,and before the moon, through all generations.
6 May he be like rain coming down upon the fields,like showers watering the earth,
