Psalms 67

1 For the end, a Psalm of David amongst the Hymns. God be merciful to us, and bless us; [and] cause his face to shine upon us. (Pause)

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 [men] may know your way on the earth, your salvation amongst all nations.

May everyone on earth come to know your ways, your salvation among all people.

3 Let the nations, O God, give thanks to you; let all the nations give thanks to you.

May the people praise you, God; may all the people praise you.

4 Let the nations rejoice and exult, for you shall judge the peoples in equity, and shall guide the nations on the earth. (Pause)

May they be happy and sing for joy because you judge people fairly, and you guide everyone on earth. (Selah)

5 Let the peoples, O God, give thanks to you; let all the peoples give thanks to you.

May the people praise you, God; may all the people praise you.

6 The earth has yielded her fruit; let God, our God bless us.

The earth has produced its crops; and God, our God, has blessed us.

7 Let God bless us; and let all the ends of the earth fear him.

God will bless us, and all people everywhere will respect him.
