1 Gott sei uns gnädig und barmherzig,und geb uns seinen göttlichen Segen.2 Er laß über uns sein Antlitz leuchten,daß wir auf Erden erkennen seine Wege.3 Es segne uns Gott, unser Gott,es segne uns Gott und geb uns seinen Frieden. Amen.
My prose translation:
1 May God be merciful and compassionate to usAnd give us His divine blessing.2 He lets His face shine over usSo that we on earth recognize His ways.3 God, our God, blesses us;God blesses us and gives us His peace. Amen.
Part of the second verse refers to Numbers 6:25: "The LORD make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you."
