[verse 11] All kynges shall seeke with one accord, in his good grace to stand: And all the people of the world, shall serue him at his hand. [verse 12] For he the needy sort doth saue, that vnto him do call: And eke the simple folke that haue no helpe of man at all.
[verse 13] He taketh pitie on the poore, that are with neede opprest: He doth preserue them euermore, and bryng their soules to rest. [verse 14] He shall redeeme their life from dread, from fraud, from wrong, from might, And eke the bloud that they shall bleede, is precious in his sight.
[verse 15] But he shall liue, and they shall bring to him of Sabas gold: He shall be honored as a kyng, and dayly be extold. [verse 16] The mighty mountaines of his land, of corne shall eare such throng: That it like Ceder trees shall stand, in Libanus full long.
[verse 17] Their Cities eke full well shall speede, the fruites therof shall passe: In plentie it shall farre exceede, and spryng as greene as grasse. [verse 18] For euer they shall prayse his name, while that the Sunne is light: And thinke them happy through the same, all folke shall blesse his might.
[verse 19] Prayse ye the Lord of hostes, and sing to Israels God eche one: For he doth euery wondrous thing, yea he him selfe alone. [verse 20] And blessed be his holy name, all tymes eternally, That all the earth may prayse the same, Amen, Amen, say I.
