Psalm 85
85
Revive Us Again
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of #Ps. 42, titlethe Sons of Korah.
1 Lord, you were #Ps. 77:7 favorable to your land;
you #Ps. 14:7restored the fortunes of Jacob.
2You #Ps. 32:1forgave the iniquity of your people;
you #Ps. 32:1covered all their sin. Selah
3You withdrew all your wrath;
you #Ps. 78:38; 106:23; Ex. 32:12; Deut. 13:17; Jonah 3:9turned from your hot anger.
4 # See Ps. 80:3 Restore us again, O God of our salvation,
and put away your indignation toward us!
5 # [Ps. 79:5] Will you be angry with us forever?
Will you prolong your anger to all generations?
6Will you not #Ps. 71:20 revive us again,
that your people may #Ps. 90:14; 149:2rejoice in you?
7Show us your steadfast love, O Lord,
and grant us your salvation.
8 # [Hab. 2:1] Let me hear what God the Lord will speak,
for he will #Zech. 9:10; [Hag. 2:9] speak peace to his people, to his #See Ps. 50:5 saints;
but let them not #[2 Pet. 2:21] turn back to #[Ps. 49:13]folly.
9Surely his #Isa. 46:13 salvation is near to those who fear him,
that #Zech. 2:5; [John 1:14]glory may dwell in our land.
10 #
Ps. 89:14; See Ps. 40:11 Steadfast love and faithfulness meet;
# [Isa. 45:8]; See Ps. 72:3 righteousness and peace kiss each other.
11Faithfulness springs up from the ground,
and righteousness looks down from the sky.
12Yes, #Ps. 84:11; [James 1:17] the Lord will give what is good,
and our land #See Ps. 67:6will yield its increase.
13 #
Ps. 89:14; Isa. 58:8 Righteousness will go before him
and make his footsteps a way.

Psalms 85
85
To the director: A song of praise from the Korah family.
1Lord, you have been so kind to your land.
You have brought success again to the people of Jacob.
2You have forgiven the bad things your people did.
You have taken away the guilt of their sins! Selah
3You stopped being angry with them.
Your terrible anger has gone away.
4Our God and Savior, accept us again.
Don’t be angry with us anymore.
5Will you be angry with us forever?
Will your anger reach to our children and to their children?
6Please, give us new life!
Make your people happy to be yours.
7Lord, save us
and show us your love.
8I heard what the Lord God said.
He said there would be peace for his people and his loyal followers.
So they must not go back to their foolish way of living.
9He will soon save his faithful followers.
His glory will again live in our land.#85:9 His … land Or “We will soon live with honor in our land.”
10God’s love will come together with his faithful people.
Goodness and peace will greet them with a kiss.
11People on earth will be loyal to God,
and God in heaven will be good to them.#85:11 Literally, “Loyalty will sprout from the ground, and goodness will look down from the sky.”
12The Lord will give us many good things.
The ground will grow many good crops.
13Goodness will go before the Lord
and prepare the way for him.
