We compute from lattice QCD in the valence (quenched) approximation the partial decay widths of the lightest scalar glueball to pairs of pseudoscalar quark-antiquark states. These predictions and values obtained earlier for the scalar glueball{close_quote}s mass are in good agreement with the observed properties of {ital f}{sub {ital J}}(1710) and inconsistent with all other observed meson resonances. {copyright} {ital 1995 The American Physical Society.}
