< Psalms 67 >

1 For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm, a Song. God be merciful unto us, and bless us, [And] cause his face to shine upon us; (Selah)
For the music director. To be accompanied by stringed instruments. A psalm. A song. May God be gracious to us and bless us. May he look favorably on us. (Selah)
2 That thy way may be known upon earth, Thy salvation among all nations.
May everyone on earth come to know your ways, your salvation among all people.
3 Let the peoples praise thee, O God; Let all the peoples praise thee.
May the people praise you, God; may all the people praise you.
4 Oh let the nations be glad and sing for joy; For thou wilt judge the peoples with equity, And govern the nations upon earth. (Selah)
May they be happy and sing for joy because you judge people fairly, and you guide everyone on earth. (Selah)
5 Let the peoples praise thee, O God; Let all the peoples praise thee.
May the people praise you, God; may all the people praise you.
6 The earth hath yielded its increase: God, even our own God, will bless us.
The earth has produced its crops; and God, our God, has blessed us.
7 God will bless us; And all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
God will bless us, and all people everywhere will respect him.
