Chapter 85

1

 

 To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of the sons of Korah.
Lord, you were good to your land: changing the fate of Jacob. 

 


2

 

 The wrongdoing of your people had forgiveness; all their sin had been covered. (Selah.) 

 


3

 

 You were no longer angry: you were turned from the heat of your wrath. 

 


4

 

 Come back to us, O God of our salvation, and be angry with us no longer. 

 


5

 

 Will you go on being angry with us for ever? will you keep your wrath against us through all the long generations? 

 


6

 

 Will you not give us life again, so that your people may be glad in you? 

 


7

 

 Let us see your mercy, O Lord, and give us your salvation. 

 


8

 

 I will give ear to the voice of the Lord; for he will say words of peace to his people and to his saints; but let them not go back to their foolish ways. 

 


9

 

 Truly, his salvation is near to his worshippers; so that glory may be in our land. 

 


10

 

 Mercy and faith have come together; righteousness and peace have given one another a kiss. 

 


11

 

 Faith comes up from the earth like a plant; righteousness is looking down from heaven. 

 


12

 

 The Lord will give what is good; and our land will give its increase. 

 


13

 

 Righteousness will go before him, making a way for his footsteps.
