May God Cause His Face to Shine Upon Us
For the Chief Musician. With stringed instruments. A Psalm. A song.
1 May God be merciful to us, bless us,
and cause his face to shine on us,
Selah.
2 that your way may be known on earth,
and your salvation among all nations.
3 Let the peoples praise you, O God.
Let all the peoples 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.
5 Let the peoples praise you, O God.
Let all the peoples praise you.
6 The earth has yielded its increase.
God–our own God–will bless us.
7 God will bless us,
that all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
