Psalm 67 is a psalm of thanksgiving on the occasion of an abundant harvest. It includes requests at the beginning and end for God to bless the people, but given the occasion, these have the sense of “may God continue to bless us.” So while these requests have an element of supplication, the psalm as a whole is a psalm of praise. See the discussion of the types of psalms in the introduction to the book of Psalms.
In verse 1, the psalmist says, “May God be gracious to us and bless us; may he make his face shine on us.” In Numbers 6:25, Yahweh told the priests to say this same thing in order to bless the Israelites. So that your readers will be able to recognize this allusion, we recommend that you translate this phrase in the same way here and in Numbers 6:25.
