God's Mercy and Blessing to All Nations

The psalmist asks God to be merciful, bless His people, and cause His face to shine upon them, so that God's way may be known upon earth and His saving health among all nations. The psalm calls all people to praise God and rejoices that God will judge the people righteously and govern the nations upon the earth. The earth shall yield her increase, and God shall bless His people so that all the ends of the earth will fear Him.
