To the Overseer. -- A Psalm of David, in the coming in unto him of Nathan the prophet, when he hath gone in unto Bath-Sheba. Favour me, O God, according to Thy kindness, According to the abundance of Thy mercies, Blot out my transgressions.

Let the kings of Tarshish and of the islands come back with offerings; let the kings of Sheba and Seba give of their stores.

May he have long life, and may gold from Sheba be given to him: may prayers be made for him at all times; may blessings be on him every day.
