1 God, give the king your justice;
your righteousness to the royal son.
2 He will judge your people with righteousness,
and your poor with justice.
3 The mountains shall bring prosperity to the people.
The hills bring the fruit of righteousness.
4 He will judge the poor of the people.
He will save the children of the needy,
and will break the oppressor in pieces.
5 They shall fear you while the sun endures;
and as long as the moon, throughout all generations.
6 He will come down like rain on the mown grass,
as showers that water the earth.
7 In his days, the righteous shall flourish,
and abundance of peace, until the moon is no more.
8 He shall have dominion also from sea to sea,
from the River to the ends of the earth.
9 Those who dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him.
His enemies shall lick the dust.
10 The kings of Tarshish and of the islands will bring tribute.
The kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.
11 Yes, all kings shall fall down before him.
All nations shall serve him.
12 For he will deliver the needy when he cries;
the poor, who has no helper.
13 He will have pity on the poor and needy.
He will save the souls of the needy.
14 He will redeem their soul from oppression and violence.
Their blood will be precious in his sight.
15 He will live; and Sheba’s gold will be given to him.
Men will pray for him continually.
They will bless him all day long.
16 Abundance of grain shall be throughout the land.
Its fruit sways like Lebanon.
Let it flourish, thriving like the grass of the field.
17 His name endures forever.
His name continues as long as the sun.
Men shall be blessed by him.
All nations will call him blessed.
18 Praise be to Yahweh God, the God of Israel,
who alone does marvelous deeds.
19 Blessed be his glorious name forever!
Let the whole earth be filled with his glory!
Amen and amen.
20 This ends the prayers by David, the son of Jesse.
1 神啊！ 求你把你的公正赐给王， 把你的公义赐给王子。（本节在《马索拉抄本》包括细字标题）
2 他要按着公义审判你的子民， 凭着公正审判你的困苦人。
3 因着公义， 愿大山和小山都给人民带来和平。
4 他必为民间的困苦人伸冤， 拯救贫穷人， 粉碎那欺压人的。
5 他必像日月一般长久， 直到万代（本节按照《马索拉抄本》应作"日月还在的时候， 愿人都敬畏你， 直到万代"； 现参照《七十士译本》翻译）。
6 他必像雨降在已割的草地上， 像甘霖滋润大地。
7 他在世的日子， 义人必兴旺， 四境太平， 直到月亮不再重现。
8 他要执掌权柄， 从这海到那海， 从大河直到地极。
9 住在旷野的人必向他屈身， 他的仇敌必舔尘土。
10 他施和海岛的列王都必带来礼物， 示巴和西巴的列王都必献上贡物。
11 众王都必向他俯伏， 万国都必服事他。
12 因为贫穷人呼求的时候， 他就搭救； 没有人帮助的困苦人， 他也搭救。
13 他必怜恤软弱和贫穷的人， 拯救贫穷人的性命。
14 他要救他们脱离欺凌和强暴， 他们的血在他眼中看为宝贵。
15 愿他长久活着， 愿人把示巴的金子奉给他， 愿人为他不住祷告， 终日给他祝福。
16 愿地上五谷丰登， 山顶上也都丰收； 愿地上的果实茂盛， 像黎巴嫩山的树林， 愿城里的人繁衍， 好像地上的青草。
17 愿他的名永远常存， 愿他的名延续像太阳的恒久； 愿万人都因他蒙福， 愿万国都称他为有福的。
18 独行奇事的以色列的 神， 就是耶和华 神， 是应当称颂的。
19 他荣耀的名也是应当永远称颂的； 愿他的荣耀充满全地。阿们， 阿们。
20 耶西的儿子大卫的祷告完毕。
