Psalm
Psalm, 85
For the director. Of the sons of Korʹah. A melody.
1 You have shown favor, O Jehovah, to your land; You brought back those of Jacob who were taken captive.
2 You have pardoned the error of your people; You forgave*1 all their sin. (Selah)
|
3 You held back all your fury; You turned away from your hot anger.
4 Restore us,*1 O God of our salvation, And set aside your displeasure with us.
|
5 Will you be furious with us forever? Will you prolong your anger to generation after generation?
6 Will you not revive us again So that your people may rejoice in you?
7 Show your loyal love to us, O Jehovah, And grant us your salvation.
8 I will listen to what the true God Jehovah says, For he will speak peace to his people, to his loyal ones, But let them not return to overconfidence.
9 Surely his salvation is near to those who fear him, So that his glory may reside in our land.
10 Loyal love and faithfulness will meet together; Righteousness and peace will kiss each other.
11 Faithfulness will sprout from the earth, And righteousness will look down from the heavens.
12 Yes, Jehovah will give what is good,*1 And our land will yield its harvest.

13 Righteousness will walk before him And make a path for his footsteps.
