Psalms 67

1 To the chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A Psalm: a Song. God be gracious unto us, and bless us, [and] cause his face to shine upon us; (Selah)

May God be merciful to us, bless us, and cause his face to shine on us. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.

2 That thy way may be known upon earth, thy salvation among all nations.

That your way may be known on earth, and your yishu'ah ·salvation· among all nations,

3 Let the peoples praise thee, O God, let all the peoples praise thee.

let the peoples yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to you, God. Let all the peoples yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to you.

4 Let the nations rejoice and sing for joy: for thou wilt judge the peoples equitably; and the nations upon earth, thou wilt guide them. (Selah)

Oh let the nations be glad and sing for joy, for you will judge the peoples with equity, and govern the nations on earth. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.

5 Let the peoples praise thee, O God; let all the peoples praise thee.

Let the peoples yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to you, God. Let all the peoples yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to you.

6 The earth will yield her increase; God, our God, will bless us:

The earth has yielded its increase. God, even our own God, will bless us.

7 God will bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.

God will bless us. All the ends of the earth shall fear him.
