Salmos 72:1-20

Salmo 72

Salmo de Salomão.

1Ó Deus, ajuda o rei a julgar como tu julgarias

e o filho do rei a andar na tua justiça.

2Para que possa julgar justamente o teu povo

e fazer justiça aos oprimidos.

3Que as montanhas e as colinas

tragam ao povo paz e retidão.

4Que o rei defenda os oprimidos e os necessitados

e tire a força ao opressor.

5Que a ti temam, ó Deus, por todo o sempre,

enquanto o Sol e a Lua permanecerem no firmamento!

6Que durante o seu reinado haja prosperidade,

como chuvas caindo sobre a relva e regando a terra.

7Que a paz e a justiça floresçam nos seus dias,

e que durem enquanto a Lua brilhar no céu.

8Que ele domine de mar a mar,

e desde o rio Eufrates até aos confins da Terra.

9Os nómadas, que habitam no deserto, ser-lhe-ão sujeitos;

os seus inimigos lamberão o pó da terra.

10Os reis de Társis e os das ilhas,

assim como os de Sabá e de Seba,

todos trarão os seus presentes.

11Sim, os reis de toda a parte

se inclinarão perante ele e o servirão.

12Ele cuidará dos necessitados, quando o procurarem,

e dos desamparados que não têm ninguém que os ajude.

13Terá compaixão dos pobres e dos aflitos,

salvará o pobre da morte.

14Libertará as suas almas da opressão e da violência,

pois as suas vidas são-lhe preciosas.

15Que o rei tenha uma longa vida;

Tragam-lhe o ouro de Sabá.

Todos os dias se farão orações por ele;

o povo constantemente o bendirá.

16Que a terra seja extremamente fértil

e até no cimo dos montes se colha o trigo.

Produza fruto igual ao do Líbano,

e que a vida das cidades prospere.

17Que o seu nome seja honrado para sempre;

enquanto durar o brilho do Sol.

Que por meio dele se sintam abençoadas

e o felicitem todas as nações!

18Bendito seja o Senhor Deus, o Deus de Israel,

o único que faz coisas maravilhosas!

19Bendito seja para sempre o seu nome glorioso!

Que toda a Terra se encha da sua glória!

Amém! Assim seja!

20Aqui terminam as orações de David, o filho de Jessé.

Psalm 72:1-20

Psalm 72

A psalm of Solomon.

1God, give the king the ability to judge fairly.

He is your royal son. Help him to do what is right.

2May he rule your people in the right way.

May he be fair to those among your people who are hurting.

3May the mountains and the hills produce rich crops,

because the people will do what is right.

4May the king stand up for those who are hurting.

May he save the children of those who are in need.

May he crush those who treat others badly.

5May the king rule as long as the sun shines

and the moon gives its light.

May he rule for all time to come.

6May he be like rain falling on the fields.

May he be like showers watering the earth.

7May godly people do well as long as he rules.

May they have more than they need as long as the moon lasts.

8May the king rule from sea to sea.

May his kingdom reach from the Euphrates River to the ends of the earth.

9May the desert tribes bow down to him.

May his enemies lick the dust.

10May the kings of Tarshish and of places far away

bring him gifts.

May the kings of Sheba and Seba

give him presents.

11May all kings bow down to him.

May all nations serve him.

12The king will save needy people who cry out to him.

He will save those who are hurting and have no one else to help.

13He will take pity on those who are weak and in need.

He will save them from death.

14He will save them from people who treat others badly.

He will save them from people who do mean things to them.

Their lives are very special to him.

15May the king live a long time!

May gold from Sheba be given to him.

May people always pray for him.

May they ask the Lord to bless him all day long.

16May there be plenty of grain everywhere in the land.

May it sway in the wind on the tops of the hills.

May the crops grow well, like those in Lebanon.

May they grow like the grass of the field.

17May the king’s name be remembered forever.

May his fame last as long as the sun shines.

Then all nations will be blessed because of him.

They will call him blessed.

18Give praise to the Lord God, the God of Israel.

Only he can do wonderful things.

19Give praise to his glorious name forever.

May his glory fill the whole earth.

Amen and Amen.

20The prayers of David, the son of Jesse, end here.
