Psalm 72:4

A Prayer For The King

³ May the mountains bring peace to the people, And the hills be laden with righteousness; ⁴ May he, Vindicate the oppressed of the people, Bring deliverance to the children of the needy, and, Crush the oppressor. ⁵ Let men revere thee, With the sun, And in presence of the moon, Unto the remotest generation.
