16. Let the fields grow plenty of grainand the hills be covered with crops.Let the land be as fertile as Lebanon,and let the cities grow like the grass in a field.
17. Let the king be famous forever;let him be remembered as long as the sun shines.Let the nations be blessed because of him,and may they all bless him.
18. Praise the Lord God, the God of Israel,who alone does such miracles.
19. Praise his glorious name forever.Let his glory fill the whole world.Amen and amen.
20. This ends the prayers of David son of Jesse.
