Psalms 67

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

God be merciful to us, and bless us; and cause his face to shine on us; (Selah)

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].

That your way may be known on earth, your saving health among all nations.

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

Let the people praise you, O God; let all the people praise 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.

O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for you shall judge the people righteously, and govern the nations on earth. (Selah)

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

Let the people praise you, O God; let all the people praise you.

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

Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us.

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

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