¹For the leader. With stringed instruments. A psalm. A song:

²God, be gracious to us, and bless us.

May he make his face shine toward us, (Selah)

³so that your way may be known on earth,

your salvation among all nations.

⁴Let the peoples give thanks to you, God;

let the peoples give thanks to you, all of them.

⁵Let the nations be glad and shout for joy,

for you will judge the peoples fairly

and guide the nations on earth. (Selah)

⁶Let the peoples give thanks to you, God;

let the peoples give thanks to you, all of them.

⁷The earth has yielded its harvest;

may God, our God, bless us.

⁸May God continue to bless us,

so that all the ends of the earth will fear him.
