Psalms 85

World English Bible

¹Yahweh, you have been favorable to your land. You have restored the fortunes of Jacob.

²You have forgiven the iniquity of your people. You have covered all their sin. Selah.

³You have taken away all your wrath. You have turned from the fierceness of your anger.

⁴Turn us, God of our salvation, and cause your indignation toward us to cease.

⁵Will you be angry with us forever? Will you draw out your anger to all generations?

⁶Won’t you revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?

⁷Show us your loving kindness, Yahweh. Grant us your salvation.

⁸I will hear what God, Yahweh, will speak, for he will speak peace to his people, his saints; but let them not turn again to folly.

⁹Surely his salvation is near those who fear him, that glory may dwell in our land.

¹⁰Mercy and truth meet together. Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

¹¹Truth springs out of the earth. Righteousness has looked down from heaven.

¹²Yes, Yahweh will give that which is good. Our land will yield its increase.

¹³Righteousness goes before him, And prepares the way for his steps.
