O bless our God - Who have so much cause as you to sing praises to the Lord? Hear what he has done for you:
O bless our God, ye people - That is, particularly the people of the nation; the Hebrew people. The call here to praise or bless God is on account of some special benefit which had been conferred on them, and which is referred to more particularly in the following verses.

And make the voice of his praise to be heard - Let it be sounded out afar, that it may be heard abroad.
