— And my mouth will proclaim your praise.

and let your face shed its light upon us.

So will your ways be known upon earth

and all nations learn your saving help.

let all the peoples praise you.

for you rule the world with justice.

With fairness you rule the peoples,

you guide the nations on earth.

let all the peoples praise you.

for God, our God, has blessed us.

May God still give us his blessing

till the ends of the earth revere him.

— as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
