Psalms - Chapter 85 | American Standard Version

  • 1. For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. 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. {cf15i Selah.}
  • 3. Thou hast taken away all thy wrath; Thou hast turned {cf15i 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 {cf15i to walk in}.
