Psalms 72

A psalm attributed to Solomon that functions as a coronation hymn, petitioning Elohim to grant the king divine justice and righteousness to rule the people fairly.[1][8] The psalm emphasizes the king's role in delivering the poor and needy from oppression and violence, establishing justice throughout the land, and receiving tribute from distant nations, with many scholars interpreting it as ultimately pointing to the Messiah and his eternal reign.[2][3][4]
