Psalm 72:1-5 Of Solomon. Give the king your justice, O God, and your righteousness to the royal son!

Psalm 72:1-5 Of Solomon. Give the king your justice, O God, and your righteousness to the royal son! May he judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice! Let the mountains bear prosperity for the people, and the hills, in righteousness! May he defend the cause of the poor of the people, give deliverance to the children of the needy, and crush the oppressor! May they fear you while the sun endures, and as long as the moon, throughout all generations!

What a picture, Lord, of Your Kingdom in completion. Justice, righteousness, prosperity, deliverance; all coming through Your hand to Your people. And the result will be generation upon generation of God-fearing peoples.
