詩篇 85

1 可拉後裔的詩，交與伶長。 耶和華啊，你已經向你的地施恩， 救回被擄的雅各。

For the end, a Psalm for the sons of Core. O Lord, you has taken pleasure in your land: you have turned back the captivity of Jacob.

2 你赦免了你百姓的罪孽， 遮蓋了他們一切的過犯。 (細拉)

You have forgiven your people their transgressions; you has covered all their sins. (Pause)

3 你收轉了所發的忿怒 和你猛烈的怒氣。

You has caused all your wrath to cease: you have turned from your fierce anger.

4 拯救我們的上帝啊，求你使我們回轉， 叫你的惱恨向我們止息。

Turn us, O God of our salvation, and turn your anger away from us.

5 你要向我們發怒到永遠嗎？ 你要將你的怒氣延留到萬代嗎？

Wouldest you be angry with us for ever? or will you continue your wrath from generation to generation?

6 你不再將我們救活， 使你的百姓靠你歡喜嗎？

O God, you will turn and quicken us; and your people shall rejoice in you.

7 耶和華啊，求你使我們得見你的慈愛， 又將你的救恩賜給我們。

Show us your mercy, O Lord, and grant us your salvation.

8 我要聽上帝－耶和華所說的話； 因為他必應許將平安賜給他的百姓－他的聖民； 他們卻不可再轉去妄行。

I will hear what the Lord God will say concerning me: for he shall speak peace to his people, and to his saints, and to those that turn their heart towards him.

9 他的救恩誠然與敬畏他的人相近， 叫榮耀住在我們的地上。

Moreover his salvation is near them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.

10 慈愛和誠實彼此相遇； 公義和平安彼此相親。

Mercy and truth are met together: righteousness and peace have kissed [each other].

11 誠實從地而生； 公義從天而現。

Truth has sprung out of the earth; and righteousness has looked down from heaven.

12 耶和華必將好處賜給我們； 我們的地也要多出土產。

For the Lord will give goodness; and our land shall yield her fruit.

13 公義要行在他面前， 叫他的腳蹤成為可走的路。

Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set his steps in the way.
