Psalms 85 : 1 - 13
Chapter 85
1 | LORD, You have been favorable to Your land; You have brought back the captivity 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 | Restore us, O God of our salvation, And cause Your anger toward us to cease.
|
5 | Will You be angry with us forever? Will You prolong Your anger to all generations?
|
6 | Will You not revive us again, That Your people may rejoice in You?
|
7 | Show us Your mercy, LORD, And grant us Your salvation.
|
8 | I will hear what God the LORD will speak, For He will speak peace To His people and to His saints; But let them not turn back to folly.
|
9 | Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, That glory may dwell in our land.
|
10 | Mercy and truth have met together; Righteousness and peace have kissed.
|
11 | Truth shall spring out of the earth, And righteousness shall look down from heaven.
|
12 | Yes, the LORD will give what is good; And our land will yield its increase.
|
13 | Righteousness will go before Him, And shall make His footsteps our pathway.
