所罗门的诗。

1神啊，求你将判断的权柄赐给王， 将公义赐给王的儿子。

2他要按公义审判你的民， 按公平审判你的困苦人。

3大山小山都要因公义使民得享平安。

4他必为民中的困苦人伸冤， 拯救穷乏之辈， 压碎那欺压人的。

5太阳还存，月亮还在， 人要敬畏你，直到万代！

6他必降临，像雨降在已割的草地上， 如甘霖滋润田地。

7在他的日子，义人要发旺， 大有平安，好像月亮长存。

8他要执掌权柄，从这海直到那海， 从大河直到地极。

9住在旷野的，必在他面前下拜； 他的仇敌必要舔土。

10他施和海岛的王要进贡； 示巴和西巴的王要献礼物。

11诸王都要叩拜他； 万国都要事奉他。

12因为，穷乏人呼求的时候，他要搭救； 没有人帮助的困苦人，他也要搭救。

13他要怜恤贫寒和穷乏的人， 拯救穷苦人的性命。

14他要救赎他们脱离欺压和强暴； 他们的血在他眼中看为宝贵。

15他们要存活。 示巴的金子要奉给他； 人要常常为他祷告，终日称颂他。

16在地的山顶上，五谷必然茂盛； 所结的谷实要响动，如黎巴嫩的树林； 城里的人要发旺，如地上的草。

17他的名要存到永远， 要留传如日之久。 人要因他蒙福； 万国要称他有福。

18独行奇事的耶和华—以色列的 神 是应当称颂的！

19他荣耀的名也当称颂，直到永远。 愿他的荣耀充满全地！ 阿们！阿们！

20耶西的儿子—大卫的祈祷完毕。

1By Solomon. O God, Thy judgments to the king give, And Thy righteousness to the king's son.

2He judgeth Thy people with righteousness, And Thy poor with judgment.

3The mountains bear peace to the people, And the heights by righteousness.

4He judgeth the poor of the people, Giveth deliverance to the sons of the needy, And bruiseth the oppressor.

5They fear Thee with the sun, and before the moon, Generation — generations.

6He cometh down as rain on mown grass, As showers — sprinkling the earth.

7Flourish in his days doth the righteous, And abundance of peace till the moon is not.

8And he ruleth from sea unto sea, And from the river unto the ends of earth.

9Before him bow do the inhabitants of the dry places, And his enemies lick the dust.

10Kings of Tarshish and of the isles send back a present. Kings of Sheba and Seba a reward bring near.

11And all kings do bow themselves to him, All nations do serve him,

12For he delivereth the needy who crieth, And the poor when he hath no helper,

13He hath pity on the poor and needy, And the souls of the needy he saveth,

14From fraud and from violence he redeemeth their soul, And precious is their blood in his eyes.

15And he liveth, and giveth to him of the gold of Sheba, And prayeth for him continually, All the day he doth bless him.

16There is a handful of corn in the earth, On the top of mountains, Shake like Lebanon doth its fruit, And they flourish out of the city as the herb of the earth.

17His name is to the age, Before the sun is his name continued, And they bless themselves in him, All nations do pronounce him happy.

18Blessed is Jehovah God, God of Israel, He alone is doing wonders,

19And blessed [is] the Name of His honour to the age, And the whole earth is filled [with] His honour. Amen, and amen!

20The prayers of David son of Jesse have been ended.
