< Psalms 67 >
1 Unto the end, in, hymns, a psalm of a canticle for David. May God have mercy on us, and bless us: may he cause the light of his countenance to shine upon us, and may he have mercy on us.
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 we may know thy way upon earth: thy salvation in all nations.
May everyone on earth come to know your ways, your salvation among all people.
3 Let people confess to thee, O God: let all people give praise to thee.
May the people praise you, God; may all the people praise you.
4 Let the nations be glad and rejoice: for thou judgest the people with justice, and directest the nations upon earth.
May they be happy and sing for joy because you judge people fairly, and you guide everyone on earth. (Selah)
5 Let the people, O God, confess to thee: let all the people give praise to thee:
May the people praise you, God; may all the people praise you.
6 The earth hath yielded her fruit. May God, our God bless us,
The earth has produced its crops; and God, our God, has blessed us.
7 May God bless us: and all the ends of the earth fear him.
God will bless us, and all people everywhere will respect him.
