Psalms


85:1

85:2

85:6
 Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?


85:7
 shew us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation.


85:8
 I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.


85:9
 Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.


85:10

85:12
 Yea, the LORD shall give that which is good; and our land shall yield her increase.

 Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.
