III

(8) May he rule sea to sea, from the river to the ends of the earth.

(9) May his foes kneel before him, his enemies lick the dust.

(10) May the kings of Tarnish and the islands bring tribute, the kings of Sheba and Seba offer gifts.

(11) May all kings bow before him, all nations serve him.

(12) For he rescues the poor when they cry out, the oppressed who have no one to help.

(13) He shows pity to the needy and the poor and saves the lives of the poor.

(14) From extortion and violence he redeems them, for precious is their blood in his sight.
