Psalms 85
1 To the Overseer. — By sons of Korah. A Psalm. Thou hast accepted, O Jehovah, Thy land, Thou hast turned [to] the captivity of Jacob.
In finem, filiis Core. Psalmus. Benedixisti, Domine, terram tuam; avertisti captivitatem Jacob.
2 Thou hast borne away the iniquity of Thy people, Thou hast covered all their sin. (Selah)
Remisisti iniquitatem plebis tuæ; operuisti omnia peccata eorum.
3 Thou hast gathered up all Thy wrath, Thou hast turned back from the fierceness of Thine anger.
Mitigasti omnem iram tuam; avertisti ab ira indignationis tuæ.
4 Turn back [to] us, O God of our salvation, And make void Thine anger with us.
Converte nos, Deus salutaris noster, et averte iram tuam a nobis.
5 To the age art Thou angry against us? Dost Thou draw out Thine anger To generation and generation?
Numquid in æternum irasceris nobis? aut extendes iram tuam a generatione in generationem?
6 Dost Thou not turn back? Thou revivest us, And Thy people do rejoice in Thee.
Deus, tu conversus vivificabis nos, et plebs tua lætabitur in te.
7 Show us, O Jehovah, thy kindness, And Thy salvation Thou dost give to us.
Ostende nobis, Domine, misericordiam tuam, et salutare tuum da nobis.
8 I hear what God Jehovah speaketh, For He speaketh peace unto His people, And unto His saints, and they turn not back 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 Only, near to those fearing Him [is] His salvation, That honour may dwell in our land.
Verumtamen prope timentes eum salutare ipsius, ut inhabitet gloria in terra nostra.
10 Kindness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have kissed,
Misericordia et veritas obviaverunt sibi; justitia et pax osculatæ sunt.
11 Truth from the earth springeth up, And righteousness from heaven looketh out,
Veritas de terra orta est, et justitia de cælo prospexit.
12 Jehovah also giveth that which is good, And our land doth give its increase.
Etenim Dominus dabit benignitatem, et terra nostra dabit fructum suum.
13 Righteousness before Him goeth, And maketh His footsteps for a way!
Justitia ante eum ambulabit, et ponet in via gressus suos.
