Psalms 85: (ASV)
|
1) Jehovah, thou hast been favorable unto thy land; Thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.
|
2) Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people; Thou hast covered all their sin. [Selah]
|
3) Thou hast taken away all thy wrath; Thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger.
|
4) Turn us, O God of our salvation, And cause thine indignation toward us to cease.
|
5) Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? Wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?
|
6) Wilt thou not quicken us again, That thy people may rejoice in thee?
|
7) Show us thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, And grant us thy salvation.
|
8) I will hear what God Jehovah will speak; For he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: But let them not turn again to folly.
|
9) Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him, That glory may dwell in our land.
|
10) Mercy and truth are met together; Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
|
11) Truth springeth out of the earth; And righteousness hath looked down from heaven.
|
12) Yea, Jehovah will give that which is good; And our land shall yield its increase.
|
13) Righteousness shall go before him, And shall make his footsteps a way to walk in.
