Psalm 67
About Psalms
The Psalms are 150 songs and prayers, written over many centuries by David and others, and gathered into five books for Israel’s worship. Every human feeling is here: joy, fear, anger, grief, confusion and thanks. Many begin in trouble and end in trust. Jesus prayed them too, even on the cross, where He spoke the opening line of Psalm 22. Read them slowly. They are meant to be prayed, not only read.
Before you read Psalm 67Written by AI
A short prayer that takes up the priestly blessing of Numbers 6, asking God to bless and shine His face on His people. The reason is wider than Israel: so that His ways may be known on earth and all nations may praise Him. It is a mission psalm in a few lines.
May God Cause His Face to Shine upon Us
For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. A Psalm. A song.
May God be gracious to us and bless us,
and cause His face to shine upon us,
Selah
that Your ways may be known on earth,
Your salvation among all nations.
Let the peoples praise You, O God;
let all the peoples praise You.
Let the nations be glad and sing for joy,
for You judge the peoples justly
and lead the nations of the earth.
Selah
Let the peoples praise You, O God;
let all the peoples praise You.
The earth has yielded its harvest;
God, our God, blesses us.
God blesses us,
that all the ends of the earth shall fear Him.
