English (Book of Common Prayer):
- God be merciful unto us, and bless us : and shew us the light of his countenance, and be merciful unto us
- That thy way may be known upon earth : thy saving health among all nations.
- Let the people praise thee, O God : yea, let all the people praise thee.
- O let the nations rejoice and be glad : for thou shalt judge the folk righteously, and govern the nations upon earth.
- Let the people praise thee, O God : yea, let all the people praise thee.
- Then shall the earth bring forth her increase : and God, even our own God, shall give us his blessing.
- God shall bless us : and all the ends of the world shall fear him.
