< Psalms 67 >
1 For the chief musician; on stringed instruments. A psalm, a song. May God be merciful to us and bless us and cause his face to shine on us (Selah)
“For the leader of the music. To be sung on stringed instruments. A psalm.” O God! be merciful to us, and bless us, And cause thy face to shine upon us! (Pause)
2 so that your ways may be known on earth, your salvation among all nations.
That thy doings may be known on earth, And thy saving power to all the nations.
3 Let the peoples praise you, God; let all the peoples praise you.
Let the nations praise thee, O God! Yea, let all the nations praise thee!
4 Oh, let the nations be glad and sing for joy, for you will judge the peoples with justice and govern the nations on earth. (Selah)
Let all the nations be glad, and shout for joy! For justly dost thou judge the people, And govern the nations on the earth.
5 Let the peoples praise you, God; let all the peoples praise you.
Let the nations praise thee, O God! Yea, let all the nations praise thee!
6 The earth has yielded its harvest and God, our God, has blessed us.
For the earth hath yielded her increase, And God, our God, hath blessed us.
7 God has blessed us, and all the ends of the earth honor him.
May God continue to bless us, And may all the ends of the earth fear him!
