Psalms 85
1 “To the chief musician, by the sons of Korach, a psalm.” Thou hast been favorable, O Lord, unto thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.
In finem, filiis Core. Psalmus. [Benedixisti, Domine, terram tuam; avertisti captivitatem Jacob.
2 Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people: thou hast covered over all their sin. (Selah)
Remisisti iniquitatem plebis tuæ; operuisti omnia peccata eorum.
3 Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast relinquished the fierceness of thy anger.
Mitigasti omnem iram tuam; avertisti ab ira indignationis tuæ.
4 Return to us, O God of our salvation, and cause thy ill-will toward us to cease.
Converte nos, Deus salutaris noster, et averte iram tuam a nobis.
5 Wilt thou be wroth with us for ever? wilt thou extend thy anger from generation to generation?
Numquid in æternum irasceris nobis? aut extendes iram tuam a generatione in generationem?
6 Wilt thou not [now] revive us again, that thy people may rejoice in thee?
Deus, tu conversus vivificabis nos, et plebs tua lætabitur in te.
7 Show us thy kindness, O Lord, and grant us thy salvation.
Ostende nobis, Domine, misericordiam tuam, et salutare tuum da nobis.
8 I will hear what God the Lord will speak; for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his pious ones: only let them not turn again to folly.
Audiam quid loquatur in me Dominus Deus, quoniam loquetur pacem in plebem suam, et super sanctos suos, et in eos qui convertuntur ad cor.
9 Surely, nigh is his salvation unto those that fear him: that glory may dwell in our land.
Verumtamen prope timentes eum salutare ipsius, ut inhabitet gloria in terra nostra.
10 Kindness and truth are met together: righteousness and peace kiss each other.
Misericordia et veritas obviaverunt sibi; justitia et pax osculatæ sunt.
11 Truth will grow up out of the earth, and righteousness will look down from heaven.
Veritas de terra orta est, et justitia de cælo prospexit.
12 Yea, the Lord will also give the good, and our land will yield its products.
Etenim Dominus dabit benignitatem, et terra nostra dabit fructum suum.
13 Righteousness will walk firmly before him, and will make [level] the way by its steps.
Justitia ante eum ambulabit, et ponet in via gressus suos.]
