Gill's Notes on the Bible

Let the people praise thee, O God,.... Let them have occasion to praise God, the people of the Jews, for the mission of Christ, and for the blessings of grace and peace with him;

let all the people praise thee; all the nations of the world, for making known the way of life and grace, and the saving health or salvation of God unto them: the word used signifies to "confess" m; and so the Targum,

"the people shall confess before thee, O God; all the people shall confess before thee;''

that is, shall confess their sins, being made sensible of them; and confess the true and living God, turning from their idols to serve him; and Christ to be the only Saviour and Redeemer, being now made known unto them, through the preaching of the Gospel.

m יודוך "confiteantur", V. L. Pagninus, Montanus, &c.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Let the people praise thee, O God - Do thou incline them to praise thee: a prayer that all people might so understand the character and ways of God, and might have such a sense of his claims upon them, as to lead them to praise him.

Let all the people praise thee - The people of all lands. See the notes at Psalms 22:27. Compare Psalms 66:4.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 67:3. Let the people praise thee — When this is done, the people - the Gentiles, will praise thee; all will give thanks to God for his unspeakable gift.
