1For the Chief Musician; on stringed instruments. A Psalm, a song. God be merciful unto us, and bless us, [And] cause his face to shine upon us; Selah2That thy way may be known upon earth, Thy salvation among all nations.3Let the peoples praise thee, O God; Let all the peoples praise thee.4Oh let the nations be glad and sing for joy; For thou wilt judge the peoples with equity, And govern the nations upon earth. Selah5Let the peoples praise thee, O God; Let all the peoples praise thee.6The earth hath yielded its increase: God, even our own God, will bless us.7God will bless us; And all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
