Psalms 85
1 Of the sones of Chore. Lord, thou hast blessid thi lond; thou hast turned awei the caitifte of Jacob.
To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. LORD, thou hast been favorable to thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.
2 Thou hast foryoue the wickidnesse of thi puple; thou hast hilid alle the synnes of hem.
Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin. (Selah)
3 Thou hast aswagid al thin ire; thou hast turned awei fro the ire of thin indignacioun.
Thou hast taken away all thy wrath; thou hast turned [thyself] from the fierceness of thy anger.
4 God, oure helthe, conuerte thou vs; and turne awei thin ire fro vs.
Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thy anger towards us to cease.
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 us for ever? wilt thou draw out thy anger to all generations?
6 God, thou conuertid schalt quykene vs; and thi puple schal be glad in thee.
Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?
7 Lord, schewe thi merci to vs; and yyue thin helthe to vs.
Show us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation.
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 hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace to his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.
9 Netheles his helthe is niy men dredynge him; that glorie dwelle in oure lond.
Surely his salvation [is] nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.
10 Merci and treuthe metten hem silf; riytwisnesse and pees weren kissid.
Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed [each other].
11 Treuthe cam forth of erthe; and riytfulnesse bihelde fro heuene.
Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.
12 For the Lord schal yyue benignyte; and oure erthe schal yyue his fruyt.
Yes, the LORD will give [that which is] good; and our land shall yield her increase.
13 Riytfulnesse schal go bifore him; and schal sette hise steppis in the weie.
Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set [us] in the way of his steps.
