- Chapter 85 -

You have shown favor to your land

1
For the chief musician. A psalm of the sons of Korah. Yahweh, you have showed favor to your land; you have restored the well-being of Jacob.
2
You have forgiven the sin of your people; you have covered all their sin. Selah.
3
You have withdrawn all your wrath; you have turned back from your hot anger.
4
Restore us, God of our salvation, and let go of your displeasure with us.
5
Will you be angry with us forever? Will you remain angry throughout future generations?
6
Will you not revive us again? Then your people will rejoice in you.
7
Show us your covenant faithfulness, Yahweh, grant us your salvation.
8
I will listen to what Yahweh God says, for he will make peace with his people, his faithful followers. Yet they must not turn again to foolish ways.
9
Surely his salvation is near to those who fear him; then glory will remain in our land.
10
Covenant faithfulness and trustworthiness have met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
11
Trustworthiness springs up from the ground, and righteousness looks down from the sky.
12
Yes, Yahweh will give his good blessings, and our land will yield its crops.
13
Righteousness will go before him and make a way for his footsteps.

You have taken away all your wrath. You have turned from the fierceness of your anger.
4
Turn us, God of our salvation, and cause your indignation toward us to cease.
5
Will you be angry with us forever? Will you draw out your anger to all generations?
6
Won’t you revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?
7
Show us your loving kindness, LORD. Grant us your salvation.
8
I will hear what God, the LORD, will speak, for he will speak peace to his people, his saints; but let them not turn again to folly.
9
Surely his salvation is near those who fear him, that glory may dwell in our land.
10
Mercy and truth meet together. Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

Truth springs out of the earth. Righteousness has looked down from heaven.
12
Yes, the LORD will give that which is good. Our land will yield its increase.
13
Righteousness goes before him, and prepares the way for his steps.
