To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Psalm. A Song.

1May God be gracious to us and bless us

and make his face to shine upon us, Selah

2that thy way may be known upon earth,

thy saving power among all nations.

3Let the peoples praise thee, O God;

let all the peoples praise thee!

4Let the nations be glad and sing for joy,

for thou dost judge the peoples with equity

and guide the nations upon earth. Selah

5Let the peoples praise thee, O God;

let all the peoples praise thee!

6The earth has yielded its increase;

God, our God, has blessed us.

7God has blessed us;

let all the ends of the earth fear him!
