< Psalms 85 >

1 To the chief Musician. Of the sons of Korah. A Psalm. Thou hast been favourable, Jehovah, unto thy land; thou hast turned the captivity of Jacob:
To him that excelleth. A Psalme committed to the sonnes of Korah. Lord, thou hast bene fauourable vnto thy land: thou hast brought againe the captiuitie of Iaakob.
2 Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people; thou hast covered all their sin. (Selah)
Thou hast forgiuen the iniquitie of thy people, and couered all their sinnes. (Selah)
3 Thou hast withdrawn all thy wrath; thou hast turned from the fierceness of thine anger.
Thou hast withdrawen all thine anger, and hast turned backe from the fiercenes of thy wrath.
4 Bring us back, O God of our salvation, and cause thine indignation toward us to cease.
Turne vs, O God of our saluation, and release thine anger toward vs.
5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger from generation to generation?
Wilt thou be angry with vs for euer? and wilt thou prolong thy wrath from one generation to another?
6 Wilt thou not revive us again, that thy people may rejoice in thee?
Wilt thou not turne againe and quicken vs, that thy people may reioyce in thee?
7 Shew us thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, and grant us thy salvation.
Shew vs thy mercie, O Lord, and graunt vs thy saluation.
8 I will hear what God, Jehovah, will speak; for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his godly ones: but let them not turn again to folly.
I will hearken what the Lord God will say: for he will speake peace vnto his people, and to his Saintes, that they turne not againe to follie.
9 Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him, that glory may dwell in our land.
Surely his saluation is neere to them that feare him, that glory may dwell in our land.
10 Loving-kindness and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other:
Mercie and trueth shall meete: righteousnes and peace shall kisse one another.
11 Truth shall spring out of the earth, and righteousness shall look down from the heavens.
Trueth shall bud out of the earth, and righteousnes shall looke downe from heauen.
12 Jehovah also will give what is good, and our land shall yield its increase.
Yea, the Lord shall giue good things, and our land shall giue her increase.
13 Righteousness shall go before him, and shall set his footsteps on the way.
Righteousnesse shall go before him, and shall set her steps in the way.
