תהילים 85

1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ ׀ לִבְנֵי־קֹרַח מִזְמֽוֹר׃ רָצִיתָ יְהוָה אַרְצֶךָ שַׁבְתָּ שבות שְׁבִית יַעֲקֹֽב׃

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 נָשָׂאתָ עֲוֺן עַמֶּךָ כִּסִּיתָ כָל־חַטָּאתָם סֶֽלָה׃

Thou hast forgiuen the iniquitie of thy people, and couered all their sinnes. (Selah)

3 אָסַפְתָּ כָל־עֶבְרָתֶךָ הֱשִׁיבוֹתָ מֵחֲרוֹן אַפֶּֽךָ׃

Thou hast withdrawen all thine anger, and hast turned backe from the fiercenes of thy wrath.

4 שׁוּבֵנוּ אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׁעֵנוּ וְהָפֵר כַּֽעַסְךָ עִמָּֽנוּ׃

Turne vs, O God of our saluation, and release thine anger toward vs.

5 הַלְעוֹלָם תֶּֽאֱנַף־בָּנוּ תִּמְשֹׁךְ אַפְּךָ לְדֹר וָדֹֽר׃

Wilt thou be angry with vs for euer? and wilt thou prolong thy wrath from one generation to another?

6 הֽ͏ֲלֹא־אַתָּה תָּשׁוּב תְּחַיֵּנוּ וְעַמְּךָ יִשְׂמְחוּ־בָֽךְ׃

Wilt thou not turne againe and quicken vs, that thy people may reioyce in thee?

7 הַרְאֵנוּ יְהוָה חַסְדֶּךָ וְיֶשְׁעֲךָ תִּתֶּן־לָֽנוּ׃

Shew vs thy mercie, O Lord, and graunt vs thy saluation.

8 אֶשְׁמְעָה מַה־יְדַבֵּר הָאֵל ׀ יְהוָה כִּי ׀ יְדַבֵּר שָׁלוֹם אֶל־עַמּוֹ וְאֶל־חֲסִידָיו וְֽאַל־יָשׁוּבוּ לְכִסְלָֽה׃

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 אַךְ ׀ קָרוֹב לִירֵאָיו יִשְׁעוֹ לִשְׁכֹּן כָּבוֹד בְּאַרְצֵֽנוּ׃

Surely his saluation is neere to them that feare him, that glory may dwell in our land.

10 חֶֽסֶד־וֶאֱמֶת נִפְגָּשׁוּ צֶדֶק וְשָׁלוֹם נָשָֽׁקוּ׃

Mercie and trueth shall meete: righteousnes and peace shall kisse one another.

11 אֱמֶת מֵאֶרֶץ תִּצְמָח וְצֶדֶק מִשָּׁמַיִם נִשְׁקָֽף׃

Trueth shall bud out of the earth, and righteousnes shall looke downe from heauen.

12 גַּם־יְהוָה יִתֵּן הַטּוֹב וְאַרְצֵנוּ תִּתֵּן יְבוּלָֽהּ׃

Yea, the Lord shall giue good things, and our land shall giue her increase.

13 צֶדֶק לְפָנָיו יְהַלֵּךְ וְיָשֵׂם לְדֶרֶךְ פְּעָמָֽיו׃

Righteousnesse shall go before him, and shall set her steps in the way.
