Psalms

85:1  To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. LORD, thou hast been favourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.

85:2  Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin. Selah.

85:3  Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger.

85:4  Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease.

85:5  Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?

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  Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

85:11  Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.

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

85:13  Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.
