诗篇 85

1 可拉后裔的诗，交与伶长。 耶和华啊，你已经向你的地施恩， 救回被掳的雅各。

For the leader. Of the Korahites, a psalm. Once, Lord, you did favour your land, granting change of fortune to Jacob,

2 你赦免了你百姓的罪孽， 遮盖了他们一切的过犯。 (细拉)

forgiving the guilt of your people, pardoning all their sin, (Selah)

3 你收转了所发的忿怒 和你猛烈的怒气。

withdrawing all your fury, turning from your hot anger.

4 拯救我们的 神啊，求你使我们回转， 叫你的恼恨向我们止息。

Restore us, O God our saviour, put away your displeasure against us.

5 你要向我们发怒到永远吗？ 你要将你的怒气延留到万代吗？

Will you cherish your anger against us forever, prolonging your wrath to all generations?

6 你不再将我们救活， 使你的百姓靠你欢喜吗？

Will you not revive us again, that your people may be glad in you?

7 耶和华啊，求你使我们得见你的慈爱， 又将你的救恩赐给我们。

Show us your kindness, O Lord, grant us your salvation.

8 我要听 神—耶和华所说的话； 因为他必应许将平安赐给他的百姓—他的圣民； 他们却不可再转去妄行。

Let me hear what God the Lord will speak; for he will speak of peace to his people, to those who love him, and turn their hearts to him.

9 他的救恩诚然与敬畏他的人相近， 叫荣耀住在我们的地上。

Soon those who fear him shall see how he saves, and glory shall live in our land.

10 慈爱和诚实彼此相遇； 公义和平安彼此相亲。

Kindness and loyalty meet; peace and righteousness kiss.

11 诚实从地而生； 公义从天而现。

Loyalty springs from the earth; righteousness looks from the sky.

12 耶和华必将好处赐给我们； 我们的地也要多出土产。

The Lord shall give all that is good, our land yielding its increase,

13 公义要行在他面前， 叫他的脚踪成为可走的路。

righteousness marching before him, and peace on the path he treads.
