Why the nations can be glad 

Old Testament: Psa 67.3–4

To read the Bible in a year, read Psalms 65–67 on August 1, In the year of our Lord Christ 2024

By Don Ruhl 

Look at the nations of the world. They want to be happy and prosperous, yet, they do not know the way. 

However, the psalmist knew the way: “Let the peoples praise You, O God; let all the peoples praise You. Oh, let the nations be glad and sing for joy! For You shall judge the people righteously, and govern the nations on earth” (Psalm 67.3–4). 

The nations can praise God because he will judge righteously and that should make us happy.
