Psalms 85
1 Of the sones of Chore. Lord, thou hast blessid thi lond; thou hast turned awei the caitifte 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 foryoue the wickidnesse of thi puple; thou hast hilid alle the synnes of hem.
Thou hast forgiuen the iniquitie of thy people, and couered all their sinnes. (Selah)
3 Thou hast aswagid al thin ire; thou hast turned awei fro the ire of thin indignacioun.
Thou hast withdrawen all thine anger, and hast turned backe from the fiercenes of thy wrath.
4 God, oure helthe, conuerte thou vs; and turne awei thin ire fro vs.
Turne vs, O God of our saluation, and release thine anger toward vs.
5 Whether thou schalt be wrooth to vs withouten ende; ether schalt thou holde forth thin ire fro generacioun in to generacioun?
Wilt thou be angry with vs for euer? and wilt thou prolong thy wrath from one generation to another?
6 God, thou conuertid schalt quykene vs; and thi puple schal be glad in thee.
Wilt thou not turne againe and quicken vs, that thy people may reioyce in thee?
7 Lord, schewe thi merci to vs; and yyue thin helthe to vs.
Shew vs thy mercie, O Lord, and graunt vs thy saluation.
8 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.
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 Netheles his helthe is niy men dredynge him; that glorie dwelle in oure lond.
Surely his saluation is neere to them that feare him, that glory may dwell in our land.
10 Merci and treuthe metten hem silf; riytwisnesse and pees weren kissid.
Mercie and trueth shall meete: righteousnes and peace shall kisse one another.
11 Treuthe cam forth of erthe; and riytfulnesse bihelde fro heuene.
Trueth shall bud out of the earth, and righteousnes shall looke downe from heauen.
12 For the Lord schal yyue benignyte; and oure erthe schal yyue his fruyt.
Yea, the Lord shall giue good things, and our land shall giue her increase.
13 Riytfulnesse schal go bifore him; and schal sette hise steppis in the weie.
Righteousnesse shall go before him, and shall set her steps in the way.
