Psalms 67

1 God, be merciful to us and bless us; be kind to us [IDM],

Unto the end. With hymns, a Canticle Psalm of David. May God have mercy on us and bless us. May he shine his countenance upon us, and may he have mercy on us.

2 in order that [everyone in] the world may know what you want them to do, and [the people of] all nations may know that you [have the power to] save [them].

So may we know your way upon the earth, your salvation among all nations.

3 God, I desire that [all] people-groups [will] praise you; I want them all to praise you!

Let the peoples confess to you, O God. Let all the peoples confess to you.

4 I desire that [the people of all] nations will be glad and sing joyfully, because you judge the people-groups equally/justly, and you guide [all] nations in the world.

May the nations rejoice and exult. For you judge the peoples with equity, and you direct the nations on earth.

5 God, I desire that the people-groups [will] praise you; I want them all to praise you!

Let the peoples confess to you, O God. Let all the peoples confess to you.

6 Good crops have grown on our land; God, our God, has blessed us.

The earth has provided her fruit. May God, our God, bless us.

7 [And because] God has blessed us, I desire that all [people] everywhere [MTY] on the earth will revere him.

May God bless us, and may all the ends of the earth fear him.
