Psalm 67


Psalm 67

New International Version (NIV)


Psalm 67

Psalm 67[a]
    For the director of music. With stringed instruments. A psalm. A song. 1 May God be gracious to us and bless us
   and make his face shine on us—[b]
2 so that your ways may be known on earth,
   your salvation among all nations.
 3 May the peoples praise you, God;
   may all the peoples praise you.
4 May the nations be glad and sing for joy,
   for you rule the peoples with equity
   and guide the nations of the earth.
5 May the peoples praise you, God;
   may all the peoples praise you.
 6 The land yields its harvest;
   God, our God, blesses us.
7 May God bless us still,
   so that all the ends of the earth will fear him.
