PSALM 72:16-19
16 May wheat abound in the land, flourish even on the mountain heights. May his fruit increase like Lebanon’s, his wheat like the grasses of the land.  17 May his name be blessed forever; as long as the sun, may his name endure. May the tribes of the earth give blessings with his name;  may all the nations regard him as favored. 18 Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who alone does wonderful deeds.  19 Blessed be his glorious name forever;  may all the earth be filled with the LORD’S glory.Amen and amen.
