May he reign from sea to sea,

    and from the Euphrates River to the ends of the earth.
 
Desert nomads will bow before him;

    his enemies will fall before him in the dust.

The western kings of Tarshish and other distant lands

    will bring him tribute.

The eastern kings of Sheba and Seba

    will bring him gifts.
 
All kings will bow before him,

    and all nations will serve him.

He will rescue the poor when they cry to him;

    he will help the oppressed,
 
who have no one to defend them.

He feels pity for the weak and the needy,

    and he will rescue them.

He will redeem them from oppression and violence,

    for their lives are precious to him.

Psalm 72:8-14
