To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm or Song.

1 God be merciful unto us, and bless us; And cause his face to shine upon us; Selah.

2 That thy way may be known upon earth, Thy saving health among all nations.

3 Let the people praise thee, O God; Let all the people praise thee.

4 O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: For thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah.

5 Let the people praise thee, O God; Let all the people praise thee.

6 Then shall the earth yield her increase; And God, even our own God, shall bless us.

7 God shall bless us; And all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
