Yes, forever!H3372H5973H8121H3394H6440H1755H1755 6May the king’s rule be refreshing like spring rain on freshly cut grass, like the showers that water the earth.H3381H4306H1488H7241H2222H776 7May all the godly flourish during his reign. May there be abundant prosperity until the moon is no more.H3117H6662H6524H7230H7965H3394 8May he reign from sea to sea, and from the Euphrates River to the ends of the earth.H7287H3220H3220H5104H657H776 9Desert nomads will bow before him; his enemies will fall before him in the dust.H6728H3766H6440H341H3897H6083 10The western kings of Tarshish and other distant lands will bring him tribute.
