71:1. Deus, judícium tuum regi da : * et justítiam tuam fílio regis : 1. Give to the king thy judgment, O God: * and to the king's son thy justice:
71:2. Judicáre pópulum tuum in justítia, * et páuperes tuos in judício. 2. To judge thy people with justice, * and thy poor with judgment.
71:3. Suscípiant montes pacem pópulo : * et colles justítiam. 3. Let the mountains receive peace for the people: * and the hills justice.
71:4. Judicábit páuperes pópuli, et salvos fáciet fílios páuperum : * et humiliábit calumniatórem. 4. He shall judge the poor of the people, and he shall save the children of the poor: * and he shall humble the oppressor.

71:6. Descéndet sicut plúvia in vellus : * et sicut stillicídia stillántia super terram. 6. He shall come down like rain upon the fleece; * and as showers falling gently upon the earth.

71:12. Quia liberábit páuperem a poténte : * et páuperem, cui non erat adjútor. 12. For he shall deliver the poor from the mighty: * and the needy that had no helper.
71:13. Parcet páuperi et ínopi : * et ánimas páuperum salvas fáciet. 13. He shall spare the poor and needy: * and he shall save the souls of the poor.
71:14. Ex usúris et iniquitáte rédimet ánimas eórum : * et honorábile nomen eórum coram illo. 14. He shall redeem their souls from usuries and iniquity: * and their names shall be honourable in his sight.
71:15. Et vivet, et dábitur ei de auro Arábiæ, et adorábunt de ipso semper : * tota die benedícent ei. 15. And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Arabia, for him they shall always adore: * they shall bless him all the day.
71:16. Et erit firmaméntum in terra in summis móntium, superextollétur super Líbanum fructus ejus : * et florébunt de civitáte sicut fœnum terræ. 16. And there shall be a firmament on the earth on the tops of mountains, above Libanus shall the fruit thereof be exalted: * and they of the city shall flourish like the grass of the earth.
