Psalmorum 85
1 in finem filiis Core psalmus benedixisti Domine terram tuam avertisti captivitatem Iacob
For the leader. Of the Korahites, a psalm. Once, Lord, you did favor your land, granting change of fortune to Jacob,
2 remisisti iniquitates plebis tuae operuisti omnia peccata eorum diapsalma
forgiving the guilt of your people, pardoning all their sin, (Selah)
3 mitigasti omnem iram tuam avertisti ab ira indignationis tuae
withdrawing all your fury, turning from your hot anger.
4 converte nos Deus salutum nostrarum et averte iram tuam a nobis
Restore us, O God our savior, put away your displeasure against us.
5 numquid in aeternum irasceris nobis aut extendes iram tuam a generatione in generationem
Will you cherish your anger against us forever, prolonging your wrath to all generations?
6 Deus tu conversus vivificabis nos et plebs tua laetabitur in te
Will you not revive us again, that your people may be glad in you?
7 ostende nobis Domine misericordiam tuam et salutare tuum da nobis
Show us your kindness, O Lord, grant us your salvation.
8 audiam quid loquatur in me Dominus Deus quoniam loquetur pacem in plebem suam et super sanctos suos et in eos qui convertuntur ad cor
Let me hear what God the Lord will speak; for he will speak of peace to his people, to those who love him, and turn their hearts to him.
9 verumtamen prope timentes eum salutare ipsius ut inhabitet gloria in terra nostra
Soon those who fear him shall see how he saves, and glory shall live in our land.
10 misericordia et veritas obviaverunt sibi iustitia et pax osculatae sunt
Kindness and loyalty meet; peace and righteousness kiss.
11 veritas de terra orta est et iustitia de caelo prospexit
Loyalty springs from the earth; righteousness looks from the sky.
12 etenim Dominus dabit benignitatem et terra nostra dabit fructum suum
The Lord shall give all that is good, our land yielding its increase,
13 iustitia ante eum ambulabit et ponet in via gressus suos
righteousness marching before him, and peace on the path he treads.
