Psalm 67

Everyone, sing to God

God, come close

Note to the music leader: This is a song, and a psalm, to be accompanied on stringed instruments. [1]
1God, be kind and generous to us.
We want the benefit of your presence.

Instruments [2]

2Then the whole world will hear of you.
And you can save people everywhere. [3]
3May everyone sing your praises.
Everyone on earth, dear God.
4May happy nations cheer and sing
For the judge who honors justice,
For the one who guides the nations of earth.

Instruments

People of earth, sing to God

5May everyone sing your praises.
Everyone on earth, dear God.
6The earth has given us its resources.
God is generous to us.
7God treats us kindly.
So, people everywhere will see it
And will come to respect him, too.

Footnotes

Intro Notes for Psalms
Intro Notes for Book 2 of 5 in Psalms
167:1

The subtitle wasn’t part of the original psalm. And the possible byline “of David,” isn’t necessarily a byline. The vague phrase could mean the song was written by David, about David, or was inspired by David. Almost half of the psalms are attributed to David in this way, 73 of 150. Ancient Jewish history tells of David playing a lyre and writing songs. For one, he wrote a song of mourning at the battlefield death of King Saul and his sons: “How have the mighty fallen!” (2 Samuel 1:19-27 New American Standard Bible). An ancient Jewish scroll from about the time of Jesus, discovered among the famous Dead Sea Scrolls, reports that David wrote 3,600 songs.

267:1

The word in the original language of Hebrew is selah. Bible scholars haven’t figured out what it means yet, so all we can do is guess. It could mean “pause for effect,” “instrumental interlude,” or “choir singing ‘Amen.’” We’re offering a guess instead of selah. Though selah might be the better way to go because it’s always correct, it’s also always incomprehensible. “Instruments” has a good chance of being wrong, but at least we convey the idea that the Hebrew word behind it probably has something to do with enhancing the song.

367:2

Apostle Paul wrote something similar to Timothy, saying that contact with God through the Jewish Bible, the Old Testament, “helped you see that having faith in the Messiah Jesus will save us” (2 Timothy 3:15).
