Psalms 72:8-12 Common English Bible (CEB)

8. Let the king rule from sea to sea,from the river to the ends of the earth.

9. Let the desert dwellers bow low before him;let his enemies lick the dust.

10. Let the kings of Tarshish and the islands bring tribute;let the kings of Sheba and Seba present gifts.

11. Let all the kings bow down before him;let all the nations serve him.

12. Let it be so, because he delivers the needy who cry out,the poor, and those who have no helper.
