2 That upon earth men may know thy way, among all nations thy salvation.
So that men may see your way on the earth, and your salvation among all nations.
3 The people will thank thee, O God; the people, all of them together, will thank thee.
Let the peoples give you praise, O God; let all the peoples give you praise.
4 Nations will rejoice and sing for joy: when thou judgest the people righteously, and guidest the nations upon earth. (Selah)

The earth has given her increase; and God, even our God, will give us his blessing.
7 God will bless us: and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
God will give us his blessing; so let all the ends of the earth be in fear of him.
