For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm, a Song.
God be merciful unto us, and bless us,
And cause his face to shine {Hebrew: with us.}upon us; [Selah
That thy way may be known upon earth,
Thy salvation among all nations.
Let the peoples {Or, give thanks unto}praise thee, O God;
Let all the peoples praise thee.
Oh let the nations be glad and sing for joy;
For thou wilt judge the peoples with equity,
And {Hebrew: lead.}govern the nations upon earth. [Selah
Let the peoples praise thee, O God;
Let all the peoples praise thee.
The earth hath yielded its increase:
God, even our own God, will bless us.
God will bless us;
And all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
