Psalms 72
Book of Psalms
Psalms 72:1 A Psalm for Solomon. Give the king thy
judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto the king's son.
2 He shall judge thy
people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment.
3 The mountains shall
bring peace to the people, and the little hills, by righteousness.
4 He shall judge the
poor of the people, he shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in
pieces the oppressor.
5 They shall fear thee
as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations.
6 He shall come down
like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth.
7 In his days shall the
righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth.
8 He shall have dominion
also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.
9 They that dwell in the
wilderness shall bow before him; and his enemies shall lick the dust.
10 The kings of Tarshish
and of the isles shall bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer
gifts.
11 Yea, all kings shall
fall down before him: all nations shall serve him.
12 For he shall deliver
the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper.
13 He shall spare the
poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy.
14 He shall redeem their
soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.
15 And he shall live,
and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: prayer also shall be made for
him continually; and daily shall he be praised.
16 There shall be an
handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the mountains; the fruit thereof
shall shake like Lebanon: and they of the city shall flourish like grass of the
earth.
17 His name shall endure
for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be
blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.
18 Blessed be the LORD
God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.
19 And blessed be his
glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen,
and Amen.
20 The prayers of David
the son of Jesse are ended.
• Exactly 2520 years from the exile
of Benjamin, Iceland became an independent nation.
•
The first tribe to be
conquered by the Assyrians was Manasseh,
in 745 B.C. Exactly 2520 years later America became a nation on July 4, 1776.
(Leviticus. 26: 28-46) God warned Israel that if they persisted in continually
breaking His Laws, not only would curses come upon them.
He would punish them for seven times, (a time being 360 years, seven times would
be 2520 years) and would banish them from the land of Palestine and scatter them
among the heathens (like lost sheep)
