Psalms 67:3, Matthew 6:9, Matthew 6:10
Gill's Notes on the Bible
Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. :-. This is repeated from that preceding verse to show the earnest desire of the church that it might be so; or that there might be an occasion for it; the ardour of her mind, and fervency of her petitions, and how much she was solicitous for the praise and glory of God; or to declare the certainty of it, she most strongly believing that so it would be; as the Targum, "the people shall confess", &c. because of a new favour to be enjoyed, mentioned in Psalms 67:6.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Let the people praise thee ... - See Psalms 67:5. The repetition shows that this was the principal thought in the mind of the author of the psalm. It expresses an earnest - an intense - desire, that all nations should acknowledge God as the true God, and praise him for his mercies.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Psalms 67:5. Let the people praise thee — Seeing the abundance of the blessings which the Gentiles were to receive, he calls again and again upon them to magnify God for such mercies.
