Psalms 72:9
7 May the righteous flourish in his days and prosperity abound, until the moon is no more.
8 May he rule from sea to sea, and from the Euphrates to the ends of the earth.
May the nomads bow before him, and his enemies lick the dust.
10 May the kings of Tarshish and distant shores bring tribute; may the kings of Sheba and Seba offer gifts.
11 May all kings bow down to him and all nations serve him.
Dette ble sagt til Israel i en bestemt tid, så det er lurt å lese det sammen med teksten rundt. Les gjerne versene rundt også, for sammenhengen gir ofte mer enn ett vers alene.
