67:1(To the chief Musician on Neginoth, A Psalm [or] Song.)
God be merciful unto us, and bless us; [and] a cause his
face to shine upon us; Selah.
(a) That is, move our hearts with his Holy Spirit, that we
may feel his favour toward us.
67:2 That b thy way may be known upon earth, thy saving health
among all nations.
(b) That both Jews and Gentiles may know God's covenant
made with them.
67:4c O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou
shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations
upon earth. Selah.
(c) By these repetitions he shows that the people can never
rejoice and give thanks enough for the great benefits
that they will receive under the kingdom of Christ.
67:6 [Then] shall d the earth yield her increase; [and] God,
[even] our own God, shall bless us.
(d) He shows that where God favours there will be abundance
of all other things.
67:7 God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth e shall
fear him.
(e) When they feel his great benefits both spiritual and
corporal toward them.
