10 The Kings of Tarshish and the Isles To him shall [costly] Presents bring; The King of Sheba and Seba [Shall send] their gifts and offering.
11 Yea▪ all the greatest Kings on earth Shall [prostrate] down before him fall; The many nations of the world Shall [also] humbly serve him all.
12 The weak and needy he will save, When they [for help] to him do call; Also the poor and forlorn man, That hath no [humane] help at all.
13 Those that are low and indigent He shall in [tender] mercy spare, And (not oppress, but) save the souls Of them that [weak and] needy are.
