Psalms 67

1 For the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. A Psalm. A song. May God be merciful to us, bless us, and cause his face to shine on us. (Selah)

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

2 That your way may be known on earth, and your salvation [yeshuat] amongst all nations,

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].

3 let the peoples praise you, God. Let all the peoples praise you.

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

4 Oh let the nations be glad and sing for joy, for you will judge the peoples with equity, and govern the nations on earth. (Selah)

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.

5 Let the peoples praise you, God. Let all the peoples praise you.

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

6 The earth has yielded its increase. God, even our own God, will bless us.

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

7 God will bless us. All the ends of the earth shall fear him.

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