Psalms 72:12-16 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

12. Our king helps the poor who cry out to him— those in need who have no one to help them.

13. He feels sorry for all who are weak and poor. He protects their lives.

14. He saves them from the cruel people who try to hurt them. Their lives are important to him.

15. Long live the king! Let him receive gold from Sheba. Always pray for the king. Ask God to bless him every day.

16. May the fields grow plenty of grain and the hills be covered with crops. May the fields be as fertile as Lebanon, and may people fill the cities as grass covers a field.
