Psalms 85
1 Unto the end. A Psalm to the sons of Korah. O Lord, you have blessed your land. You have turned aside the captivity of Jacob.
Of the sones of Chore. Lord, thou hast blessid thi lond; thou hast turned awei the caitifte of Jacob.
2 You have released the iniquity of your people. You have covered all their sins.
Thou hast foryoue the wickidnesse of thi puple; thou hast hilid alle the synnes of hem.
3 You have mitigated all your wrath. You have turned aside from the wrath of your indignation.
Thou hast aswagid al thin ire; thou hast turned awei fro the ire of thin indignacioun.
4 Convert us, O God, our Savior, and turn your anger away from us.
God, oure helthe, conuerte thou vs; and turne awei thin ire fro vs.
5 Will you be angry with us forever? And will you extend your wrath from generation to generation?
Whether thou schalt be wrooth to vs withouten ende; ether schalt thou holde forth thin ire fro generacioun in to generacioun?
6 O God, you will turn back and revive us. And your people will rejoice in you.
God, thou conuertid schalt quykene vs; and thi puple schal be glad in thee.
7 O Lord, reveal to us your mercy, and grant to us your salvation.
Lord, schewe thi merci to vs; and yyue thin helthe to vs.
8 I will listen to what the Lord God may be saying to me. For he will speak peace to his people, and to his saints, and to those who are being converted to the heart.
I schal here what the Lord God schal speke in me; for he schal speke pees on his puple. And on hise hooli men; and on hem that ben turned to herte.
9 So then, truly his salvation is near to those who fear him, so that glory may inhabit our land.
Netheles his helthe is niy men dredynge him; that glorie dwelle in oure lond.
10 Mercy and truth have met each other. Justice and peace have kissed.
Merci and treuthe metten hem silf; riytwisnesse and pees weren kissid.
11 Truth has risen from the earth, and justice has gazed down from heaven.
Treuthe cam forth of erthe; and riytfulnesse bihelde fro heuene.
12 For so will the Lord give goodness, and our earth will give her fruit.
For the Lord schal yyue benignyte; and oure erthe schal yyue his fruyt.
13 Justice will walk before him, and he will set his steps upon the way.
Riytfulnesse schal go bifore him; and schal sette hise steppis in the weie.
