Psalms 85

¹To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. O LORD, You have [at last] shown favor to Your land [of Canaan]; You have restored [from Babylon] the captives of Jacob (Israel).

²You have forgiven the wickedness of Your people; You have covered all their sin. Selah.

³You have withdrawn all Your wrath, You have turned away from Your burning anger.

⁴Restore us, O God of our salvation, And cause Your indignation toward us to cease.

⁵Will You be angry with us forever? Will You prolong Your anger to all generations?

⁶Will You not revive us and bring us to life again, That Your people may rejoice in You?

⁷Show us Your lovingkindness, O LORD, And grant us Your salvation.

⁸I will hear [with expectant hope] what God the LORD will say, For He will speak peace to His people, to His[1] godly ones— But let them not turn again to folly.

⁹Surely His salvation is near to those who [reverently] fear Him [and obey Him with submissive wonder], That glory [the manifest presence of God] may dwell in our land.

¹⁰Steadfast love and truth and faithfulness meet together; Righteousness and peace kiss each other.

¹¹Truth springs from the earth, And righteousness looks down from heaven.

¹²Indeed, the LORD will give what is good, And our land will yield its produce.

¹³Righteousness will go before Him And will make His footsteps into a way [in which to walk].
