12 For he rescues the poor when they cry out,the oppressed who have no one to help.
13 He shows pity to the needy and the poorand saves the lives of the poor.
14 From extortion and violence he redeems them,for precious is their blood in his sight.
15 Long may he live, receiving gold from Sheba,prayed for without cease, blessed day by day.
16 May wheat abound in the land,flourish even on the mountain heights.May his fruit be like that of Lebanon,and flourish in the city like the grasses of the land.
17 May his name be forever;as long as the sun, may his name endure.May the tribes of the earth give blessings with his name;may all the nations regard him as favored.
18 Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel,who alone does wonderful deeds.
