Psalms - Chapter 85

Chapter 84 | Psalms | Contents

1 | Lord, thou hast been favourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.
2 | Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin. Selah.
3 | Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger.
4 | Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease.
5 | Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?
6 | Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?
7 | Shew us thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us thy salvation.
8 | I will hear what God the Lord will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.
9 | Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.
10 | Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
11 | Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.
12 | Yea, the Lord shall give that which is good; and our land shall yield her increase.
13 | Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.
