From Association of Independent Readers and Rootworkers

Psalms 72

Hoodoo psychic readers, spirit workers and root doctors who recite Psalms on behalf of clients may work with Psalm 72 during altar work and prayers to protect against poverty. Spirit workers will use Psalms 72 to create charms and talismans that will bring the client favour and grace from all whom they meet. Praying this Psalm also has the power to cause everyone to love and respect the wisdom of the one for whom Psalms 72 is being recited. Because it is said by some to have been written by King David for the blessing and benefit of his son, King Solomon, it is recited when calling upon God to bless the transition of one's children from childhood to adulthood, granting their attainment of the skills of leadership and ensuring their adherence to the cause of righteous social justice. Because King Solomon was known as a wise and fair judge, this Solomonic Psalm is also recited by those who are seeking justice in a court case or mediation. It can be recited over talismans or jewelry given to young adults to wear while embarking on a career, or to anyone who is dealing with legal matters or disputes.

Psalms 72

[1] 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.
