Translationpeace for the people: and little hills justice./ He shall judge the poor of the people:/ and shall save the children of the poor:/ and he shall humble the slanderer./ And he shall continue with the sun: and before the moon: in/ generation and generation./ He shall come down like rain upon a fleece:/ and like drops distilling upon the earth./ In his days justice shall rise:/ and abundance of peace until the moon be taken away./ And he shall bestow from sea unto sea:/ and from the river even to the ends of the world./ Before him shall the aethiopes fall down:/ and his enemies shall lick the earth./ The kings of tharsis and the islands shall offer presents:/ the kings of the arabia and of saba shall bring gifts./ And all kings shall adore him:/ all nations shall serve him./ Because he shall deliver the poor from the mighty: and the poor which had no helper./ He shall spare the poor and needy:/ and he shall save the souls of the poor./ |
