< Psalms 85 >

1 For the end, a Psalm for the sons of Core. O Lord, thou has taken pleasure in thy land: thou hast turned back the captivity of Jacob.
詠【求賜平安與幸福】 科辣黑子孫的詩歌,交於樂官。 天主,您對您的地域已加垂憐,且將雅各伯的命改善;
2 Thou hast forgiven thy people their transgressions; thou has covered all their sins. (Pause)
赦免了您百姓的罪愆,遮掩了他們所有的過犯;
3 Thou has caused all thy wrath to cease: thou hast turned from thy fierce anger.
抑制了您怒氣的火燄。
4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, and turn thy anger away from us.
天主,我們的救主,求您復興我們,求您從我們身上消除您的氣憤。
5 Wouldest thou be angry with us for ever? or wilt thou continue thy wrath from generation to generation?
您豈能永遠向我們發怒?世世代代發洩您的憤怒?
6 O God, thou wilt turn and quicken us; and thy people shall rejoice in thee.
難道不是您使我們復生?使您的子民因您而歡欣?
7 Shew us thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us thy salvation.
上主,求您向我們顯示您的救恩。
8 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 toward him.
我要聽天主上主說的話:祂向自己的聖者和子民,以及向祂回心轉意的人,所說的話確實是和平綸音。
9 Moreover his salvation is near them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.
祂的救恩必接近敬箋愛祂的人,為使我們在地上久存。
10 Mercy and truth are met together: righteousness and peace have kissed [each other].
仁愛和忠信必彼此相親。
11 Truth has sprung out of the earth; and righteousness has looked down from heaven.
忠信從地下生出,正義由天上遠矚。
12 For the Lord will give goodness; and our land shall yield her fruit.
上主必賜下安康幸福;我們的土地必有豐收穫。
13 Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set his steps in the way.
正義在上主前面行走,救恩必隨同上主的腳步。
