2 so that your way may be known on earth,
your salvation among all nations.(B)

4 Let the nations rejoice and shout for joy,
for you judge the peoples with fairness
and lead the nations on earth.(D) Selah
5 Let the peoples praise you, God,
let all the peoples praise you.(E)
6 The earth has produced its harvest;
