Psalm 85
For the choir director; a psalm by Korah’s descendants.
1You favored your land, O Lord.
You restored the fortunes of Jacob.
2You removed your people’s guilt.
You pardoned all their sins. Selah
3You laid aside all your fury.
You turned away from your burning anger.
4Restore us, O God, our savior.
Put an end to your anger against us.
5Will you be angry with us forever?
Will you ever let go of your anger in the generations to come?
6Won’t you restore our lives again
so that your people may find joy in you?
7Show us your mercy, O Lord,
by giving us your salvation.
8I want to hear what God the Lord says,
because he promises peace to his people, to his godly ones.
But they must not go back to their stupidity.
9Indeed, his salvation is near those who fear him,
and ⌞his⌟ glory will remain in our land.
10Mercy and truth have met.
Righteousness and peace have kissed.
11Truth sprouts from the ground,
and righteousness looks down from heaven.
12The Lord will certainly give us what is good,
and our land will produce crops.
13Righteousness will go ahead of him
and make a path for his steps.

Psalms 85
85
For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by the sons of Korah.
1 LORD, you have been favourable to your land.
You have restored the fortunes of Jacob.
2 You have forgiven the iniquity of your people.
You have covered all their sin. Selah.
3 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 towards us to cease.
5 Will you be angry with us forever?
Will you draw out your anger to all generations?
6Won’t you revive us again,
that your people may rejoice in you?
7Show 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 holy ones;
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.
10Mercy and truth meet together.
Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
11Truth springs out of the earth.
Righteousness has looked down from heaven.
12Yes, the LORD will give that which is good.
Our land will yield its increase.
13Righteousness goes before him,
and prepares the way for his steps.
