Ps 72 This royal psalm closes Book Two, with 72:18-20 functioning as an epilogue to all of Book Two. The psalmist reflects on the prospects of David’s royal line and on Zion (see Pss 46, 48). He prays that Israel’s kings will be good and prosperous, extending the Lord’s blessing on his people throughout the whole earth. The surpassing righteousness and dominion sought in this prayer foreshadow the coming of Jesus, the Son of David.
May he judge
(Some words not found in UHB: judge people,your in/on/at/with,righteousness and,afflicted,your in/on/at/with,justice )
If David wrote this, he is talking about his son, “the king’s son,” he is speaking of the time when his son will be king. If Solomon wrote it, even though he is writing about himself, it would be best to translate as though he were writing about someone else. Either way, “May the king judge” is the best translation.
your people & your poor
(Some words not found in UHB: judge people,your in/on/at/with,righteousness and,afflicted,your in/on/at/with,justice )
The psalmist is speaking to God.

your poor
(Some words not found in UHB: judge people,your in/on/at/with,righteousness and,afflicted,your in/on/at/with,justice )
The verb may be supplied from the previous phrase. The adjective “poor” refers to poor people. Alternate translation: “may he judge your poor people” (See also: figs-nominaladj)
