72:20 耶西的兒子─大衛的祈禱完畢。
默想: 詩篇七十二篇是一篇為在上君王禱告的詩，這首詩特別強調一個君王必須用公義、公平來管理、判斷上帝的百姓，同時這君王所帶給人民的是公義平安，他要為受苦人伸冤，拯救窮乏的人，壓碎那些欺壓者。
從這樣的禱告詞中，我們看到，一個掌權不是勢權妄為，乃是在公義、真理之下，極積去幫助弱勢、軟弱的人。上帝設立君王，並不是要他們作威享福，而是要他們努力去促成這個社會更有公平正義，扶助弱勢，這樣才是擁有上帝所設立君王的樣式。
所以，當我們在為在上掌權者禱告時，不單是求上帝賜給他們智慧能力，也要求上帝賜給他們一個謙卑、憐憫人的心，真正能夠同理關心弱勢、需要幫助的人，好讓他能夠成為上帝的器皿，幫助那些弱勢、需要照顧的人。
題目: 詩篇七十二篇是為在上執政掌全者的禱告，有那些內容呢？

70:3 願那些對我說阿哈、阿哈的，因羞愧退後。
Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha.
70:4 願一切尋求你的，因你高興歡喜；願那些喜愛你救恩的，常說：當尊 神為大！
Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified.
70:5 但我是困苦窮乏的； 神啊，求你速速到我這裡來！你是幫助我的，搭救我的。耶和華啊，求你不要耽延！
