Psalm 72

Menge Bibel

1 Von Salomo. Gott, dein richterlich Walten verleihe dem König und deine Gerechtigkeit dem Königssohn,2 daß er dein Volk mit Gerechtigkeit richte und deine Elenden[1] nach dem Recht!3 Laß die Berge dem Volke Frieden[2] tragen und die Hügel sich kleiden in Gerechtigkeit!4 Er schaffe Recht den Elenden[3] im Volk, er helfe den armen Leuten und zertrete den Bedrücker.5 Möge er leben, solange die Sonne scheint und der Mond (uns leuchtet), von Geschlecht zu Geschlecht!6 Er möge sein wie Regen für frischgemähte Wiesen, wie Regenschauer, die das Land besprengen!7 In seinen Tagen möge der Gerechte blühen und Friede[4] in Fülle bestehn, bis kein Mond mehr scheint.8 Er herrsche von Meer zu Meer und vom Euphratstrom bis hin an die Enden der Erde!9 Vor ihm müssen die Steppenvölker die Knie beugen und seine Feinde den Staub lecken[5];10 die Könige von Tharsis und den Meeresländern müssen Geschenke ihm bringen, die Herrscher von Saba und Seba Abgaben[6] entrichten;11 ja huldigen müssen ihm alle Könige, die Völker alle ihm dienen!12 Denn er wird den Armen retten, der um Hilfe schreit, den Leidenden und den, der keinen Helfer hat.13 Er wird sich erbarmen des Schwachen und Armen und Hilfe gewähren den Seelen der Armen;14 aus Bedrückung und Gewalttat wird er ihre Seelen erlösen, und ihr Blut wird kostbar sein in seinen Augen.15 So lebe er denn, und man gebe ihm vom Golde aus Saba, man bete immerdar für ihn und segne ihn allezeit!16 Fülle von Korn möge sein im Lande bis auf die Gipfel der Berge, es rausche seine Frucht wie der Libanon! Und aus den Städten blühe das Volk hervor so zahlreich wie das Gras der Erde!17 Sein Name möge ewig bestehn: solange die Sonne scheint, lebe sein Name fort, so daß man in ihm sich Segen wünscht und alle Völker ihn glücklich preisen!18 Gepriesen sei Gott der HERR, der Gott Israels, der Wunder vollbringt, er allein!19 Und gepriesen sei sein herrlicher Name in Ewigkeit, und die ganze Erde sei seiner Herrlichkeit[7] voll! Amen, ja Amen! –20 Zu Ende sind die Gebete Davids, des Sohnes Isais.

1 God, give the king the ability to judge fairly. He is your royal son. Help him to do what is right.2 May he rule your people in the right way. May he be fair to those among your people who are hurting.3 May the mountains and the hills produce rich crops, because the people will do what is right.4 May 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.5 May the king rule as long as the sun shines and the moon gives its light. May he rule for all time to come.6 May he be like rain falling on the fields. May he be like showers watering the earth.7 May godly people do well as long as he rules. May they have more than they need as long as the moon lasts.8 May the king rule from sea to sea. May his kingdom reach from the River Euphrates to the ends of the earth.9 May the desert tribes bow down to him. May his enemies lick the dust.10 May the kings of Tarshish and of places far away bring him gifts. May the kings of Sheba and Seba give him presents.11 May all kings bow down to him. May all nations serve him.12 The king will save needy people who cry out to him. He will save those who are hurting and have no one else to help.13 He will take pity on those who are weak and in need. He will save them from death.14 He 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.15 May 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.16 May there be plenty of corn 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.17 May the king’s name be remembered for ever. May his fame last as long as the sun shines. Then all nations will be blessed because of him. They will call him blessed.18 Give praise to the LORD God, the God of Israel. Only he can do wonderful things.19 Give praise to his glorious name for ever. May his glory fill the whole earth. Amen and Amen.20 The prayers of David, the son of Jesse, end here.

Psalm 72

1 Of Solomon. Give the king your justice, O God, and your righteousness to the royal son! (1Chr 22,12; Ps 127,1)2 May he judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice! (Ps 122,5; Jes 9,7; Jes 11,2; Jes 32,1)3 Let the mountains bear prosperity for the people, and the hills, in righteousness! (Ps 85,10; Jes 32,17; Jes 52,7)4 May he defend the cause of the poor of the people, give deliverance to the children of the needy, and crush the oppressor!5 May they fear you[1] while the sun endures, and as long as the moon, throughout all generations! (Ps 72,7; Ps 72,17; Ps 89,4; Ps 89,36; Jer 31,35; Jer 33,20; Jer 33,25; Lk 1,33)6 May he be like rain that falls on the mown grass, like showers that water the earth! (5Mo 32,2; 2Sam 23,4; Hi 5,10; Ps 65,10; Hos 6,3; Am 7,1)7 In his days may the righteous flourish, and peace abound, till the moon be no more! (Ps 92,12; Jes 2,4; Eph 2,14)8 May he have dominion from sea to sea, and from the River[2] to the ends of the earth! (2Mo 23,31; 1Kön 4,21; 1Kön 4,24; Ps 2,8; Ps 80,11; Ps 89,25; Sach 9,10)9 May desert tribes bow down before him, and his enemies lick the dust! (Ps 22,29; Jes 49,23; Mi 7,17)10 May the kings of Tarshish and of the coastlands render him tribute; may the kings of Sheba and Seba bring gifts! (1Mo 10,7; 1Sam 10,27; 1Kön 10,1; 1Kön 10,22; Ps 68,29; Jes 42,10; Jes 42,12; Jes 43,3; Jes 45,14; Jes 51,5; Jes 60,9)11 May all kings fall down before him, all nations serve him! (Jes 49,7; Jes 49,23)12 For he delivers the needy when he calls, the poor and him who has no helper. (Hi 29,12)13 He has pity on the weak and the needy, and saves the lives of the needy.14 From oppression and violence he redeems their life, and precious is their blood in his sight. (2Kön 1,13; Ps 116,15)15 Long may he live; may gold of Sheba be given to him! May prayer be made for him continually, and blessings invoked for him all the day! (5Mo 9,20; 1Kön 10,10)16 May there be abundance of grain in the land; on the tops of the mountains may it wave; may its fruit be like Lebanon; and may people blossom in the cities like the grass of the field! (Hi 5,25; Ps 92,7)17 May his name endure forever, his fame continue as long as the sun! May people be blessed in him, all nations call him blessed! (1Mo 12,3; 1Mo 18,18; 1Mo 22,18; 1Mo 26,4; Ps 89,36; Ps 104,31; Lk 1,48)18 Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, who alone does wondrous things. (2Mo 15,11; Hi 5,9; Ps 41,13; Ps 77,14; Ps 86,10; Ps 136,4)19 Blessed be his glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with his glory! Amen and Amen! (4Mo 14,21; Neh 9,5; Ps 41,13)20 The prayers of David, the son of Jesse, are ended. (2Sam 23,1; Ps 17,1; Ps 55,1; Ps 86,1)
