1 [[To the chief Musician H5329 on Neginoth, H5058 A Psalm H4210 or Song.]] H7892 God H430 be merciful H2603 unto us, and bless H1288 us; and cause his face H6440 to shine H215 upon us; Selah. H5542
There be many H7227 that say, H559 Who will shew H7200 us any good? H2896 LORD, H3068 lift thou up H5375 the light H216 of thy countenance H6440 upon us.
The LORD H3068 bless H1288 thee, and keep H8104 thee: The LORD H3068 make his face H6440 shine H215 upon thee, and be gracious H2603 unto thee: The LORD H3068 lift up H5375 his countenance H6440 upon thee, and give H7760 thee peace. H7965 And they shall put H7760 my name H8034 upon the children H1121 of Israel; H3478 and I will bless H1288 them.
Turn us again, H7725 O LORD H3068 God H430 of hosts, H6635 cause thy face H6440 to shine; H215 and we shall be saved. H3467
Make thy face H6440 to shine H215 upon thy servant; H5650 and teach H3925 me thy statutes. H2706
[[To the chief Musician H5329 upon Shoshannimeduth, H7802 A Psalm H4210 of Asaph.]] H623 Give ear, H238 O Shepherd H7462 of Israel, H3478 thou that leadest H5090 Joseph H3130 like a flock; H6629 thou that dwellest H3427 between the cherubims, H3742 shine forth. H3313 Before H6440 Ephraim H669 and Benjamin H1144 and Manasseh H4519 stir up H5782 thy strength, H1369 and come H3212 and save H3444 us. Turn us again, H7725 O God, H430 and cause thy face H6440 to shine; H215 and we shall be saved. H3467

For G3754 God, G2316 who G3588 commanded G2036 the light G5457 to shine G2989 out of G1537 darkness, G4655 G3739 hath shined G2989 in G1722 our G2257 hearts, G2588 to G4314 give the light G5462 of the knowledge G1108 of the glory G1391 of God G2316 in G1722 the face G4383 of Jesus G2424 Christ. G5547
The grace G5485 of the Lord G2962 Jesus G2424 Christ, G5547 and G2532 the love G26 of God, G2316 and G2532 the communion G2842 of the Holy G40 Ghost, G4151 be with G3326 you G5216 all. G3956 Amen. G281
Save H3467 thy people, H5971 and bless H1288 thine inheritance: H5159 feed H7462 them also, and lift them up H5375 for ever. H5769
