A Prayer for the King

"Length of days
long lasting years
a strong sword
a long life
extended years of glory
pre-eminence among Kings
grant ye to the King my Lord,
who has given such gifts
to his gods!
The bounds vast and wide
of his Empire
and of his Rule,
may he enlarge and may he complete!
Holding over all Kings supremacy
and royalty and empire
may he attain to gray hairs
and old age!
And after the life of these days,
in the feasts of the silver mountain, the heavenly Courts
the abodes of blessedness:
and in the Light
of the Happy Fields,
may he dwell a life
eternal, holy
in the presence
of the gods
who inhabit Assyria!"
