Psalms 85

1 TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. You have accepted, O YHWH, Your land, You have turned [to] the captivity of Jacob.

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。

2 You have carried away the iniquity of Your people, You have covered all their sin. (Selah)

你赦免了你百姓的罪孽， 遮蓋了他們一切的過犯。 (細拉)

3 You have gathered up all Your wrath, You have turned back from the fierceness of Your anger.

你收轉了所發的忿怒 和你猛烈的怒氣。

4 Turn back [to] us, O God of our salvation, And make void Your anger with us.

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。

5 Are You angry against us for all time? Do You draw out Your anger To generation and generation?

你要向我們發怒到永遠嗎？ 你要將你的怒氣延留到萬代嗎？

6 Do You not turn back? You revive us, And Your people rejoice in You.

你不再將我們救活， 使你的百姓靠你歡喜嗎？

7 Show us, O YHWH, your kindness, And You give to us Your salvation.

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。

8 I hear what God, YHWH, speaks, For He speaks peace to His people, And to His saints, and they do not turn back to folly.

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。

9 Surely His salvation [is] near to those fearing Him, That glory may dwell in our land.

他的救恩誠然與敬畏他的人相近， 叫榮耀住在我們的地上。

10 Kindness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have kissed,

慈愛和誠實彼此相遇； 公義和平安彼此相親。

11 Truth springs up from the earth, And righteousness looks out from the heavens,

誠實從地而生； 公義從天而現。

12 YHWH also gives that which is good, And our land gives its increase.

耶和華必將好處賜給我們； 我們的地也要多出土產。

13 Righteousness goes before Him, And makes a way for His footsteps!

公義要行在他面前， 叫他的腳蹤成為可走的路。
