1 For the music director, to be accompanied by stringed instruments; a psalm, a song.

May God show us his favor and bless us.

May he smile on us. (Selah)

2 Then those living on earth will know what you are like;

all nations will know how you deliver your people.

3 Let the nations thank you, O God.

Let all the nations thank you.

4 Let foreigners rejoice and celebrate.

For you execute justice among the nations

and govern the people living on earth. (Selah)

5 Let the nations thank you, O God.

Let all the nations thank you.

6 The earth yields its crops.

May God, our God, bless us.

7 May God bless us.

Then all the ends of the earth will give him the honor he deserves.
