Psalms 67

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

For the leader. On stringed instruments. A psalm. A song. Bless us, O God, with your favour, let the light of your face fall upon 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 the world may know your way, and all nations your power to save.

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

Let the peoples praise you, O God; let the peoples all of them 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.

Let the nations ring out their joy; for you govern the peoples with equity, and guide 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 peoples praise you, O God, let the peoples, all of them, praise you.

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

The earth has yielded her increase by the blessing of God, our God.

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

May this blessing of ours win people to him to all the ends of the earth.
