New International Version Anglicized

Psalm 72:4-9 New International Version Anglicized (NIVUK)

4. May he defend the afflicted among the peopleand save the children of the needy;may he crush the oppressor.

5. May he endure as long as the sun,as long as the moon, through all generations.

6. May he be like rain falling on a mown field,like showers watering the earth.

7. In his days may the righteous flourishand prosperity abound till the moon is no more.

8. May he rule from sea to seaand from the River to the ends of the earth.

9. May the desert tribes bow before himand his enemies lick the dust.
