14 He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence; and precious shall their blood be in his sight.
15 And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba; prayer also shall be made for him continually; and daily shall he be praised.
16 There shall be a handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon; and they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.
17 His name shall endure forever; his name shall be continued as long as the sun; and men shall be blessed in him; all nations shall call him blessed.
18 Blessed be the Lord God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.
19 And blessed be his glorious name forever; and let the whole earth be filled with his glory. Amen, and Amen.
20 The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.
Psalms 73 Intro: The prophet's deliverance from temptation -- God's purpose in destroying the wicked and sustaining the righteous. (A Psalm of Asaph.)
1 Truly God is good to Israel, even to such as are of a clean heart.
2 But as for me, my feet were almost gone; my steps had well-nigh slipped.
3 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
