7 En ses jours le juste fleurira, Et la paix sera grande jusqu’à ce qu’il n’y ait plus de lune.

8 Il dominera d’une mer à l’autre, Et du fleuve aux extrémités de la terre.

9 Devant lui, les habitants du désert fléchiront le genou, Et ses ennemis lécheront la poussière.

10 Les rois de Tarsis et des îles paieront des tributs, Les rois de Séba et de Saba offriront des présents.

11 Tous les rois se prosterneront devant lui, Toutes les nations le serviront.
