< Psalms 85 >

1 Of the sones of Chore. Lord, thou hast blessid thi lond; thou hast turned awei the caitifte of Jacob.
To the Overseer. — By sons of Korah. A Psalm. Thou hast accepted, O Jehovah, Thy land, Thou hast turned [to] the captivity of Jacob.
2 Thou hast foryoue the wickidnesse of thi puple; thou hast hilid alle the synnes of hem.
Thou hast borne away 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 gathered up all Thy wrath, Thou hast turned back from the fierceness of Thine anger.
4 God, oure helthe, conuerte thou vs; and turne awei thin ire fro vs.
Turn back [to] us, O God of our salvation, And make void Thine anger with us.
5 Whether thou schalt be wrooth to vs withouten ende; ether schalt thou holde forth thin ire fro generacioun in to generacioun?
To the age art Thou angry against us? Dost Thou draw out Thine anger To generation and generation?
6 God, thou conuertid schalt quykene vs; and thi puple schal be glad in thee.
Dost Thou not turn back? Thou revivest us, And Thy people do rejoice in Thee.
7 Lord, schewe thi merci to vs; and yyue thin helthe to vs.
Show us, O Jehovah, thy kindness, And Thy salvation Thou dost give to us.
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 hear what God Jehovah speaketh, For He speaketh peace unto His people, And unto His saints, and they turn not back to folly.
9 Netheles his helthe is niy men dredynge him; that glorie dwelle in oure lond.
Only, near to those fearing Him [is] His salvation, That honour may dwell in our land.
10 Merci and treuthe metten hem silf; riytwisnesse and pees weren kissid.
Kindness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have kissed,
11 Treuthe cam forth of erthe; and riytfulnesse bihelde fro heuene.
Truth from the earth springeth up, And righteousness from heaven looketh out,
12 For the Lord schal yyue benignyte; and oure erthe schal yyue his fruyt.
Jehovah also giveth that which is good, And our land doth give its increase.
13 Riytfulnesse schal go bifore him; and schal sette hise steppis in the weie.
Righteousness before Him goeth, And maketh His footsteps for a way!
