3. The lofty mountains shall bring forthunto the people peace;Likewise the little hills the sameshall do by righteousness.

4. The people's poor ones he shall judge,the needy's children save;And those shall he in pieces breakwho them oppressed have.

5. They shall thee fear, while sun and moondo last, through ages all.

6. Like rain on mown grass he shall drop,or show'rs on earth that fall.

7. The just shall flourish in his days,and prosper in his reign:He shall, while doth the moon endure,abundant peace maintain.

8. His large and great dominion shallfrom sea to sea extend:It from the river shall reach forthunto earth's utmost end.

9. They in the wilderness that dwellbow down before him must;And they that are his enemiesshall lick the very dust.

10. The kings of Tarshish, and the isles,to him shall presents bring;And unto him shall offer giftsSheba's and Seba's king.

11. Yea, all the mighty kings on earthbefore him down shall fall;And all the nations of the worlddo service to him shall.
