# Chapter 85
|
||
1 Lord, you showed favor to your land;
|
||
you restored the fortunes of Jacob.
|
||
2 You forgave your people’s guilt;
|
||
you covered all their sin. Selah
|
||
3 You withdrew all your fury;
|
||
you turned from your burning anger.
|
||
4 Return to us, God of our salvation,
|
||
and abandon your displeasure with us.
|
||
5 Will you be angry with us forever?
|
||
Will you prolong your anger for all generations?
|
||
6 Will you not revive us again
|
||
so that your people may rejoice in you?
|
||
7 Show us your faithful love, Lord,
|
||
and give us your salvation.
|
||
8 I will listen to what God will say;
|
||
surely the Lord will declare peace
|
||
to his people, his faithful ones,
|
||
and not let them go back to foolish ways.
|
||
9 His salvation is very near those who fear him,
|
||
so that glory may dwell in our land.
|
||
10 Faithful love and truth will join together;
|
||
righteousness and peace will embrace.
|
||
11 Truth will spring up from the earth,
|
||
and righteousness will look down from heaven.
|
||
12 Also, the Lord will provide what is good,
|
||
and our land will yield its crops.
|
||
13 Righteousness will go before him
|
||
to prepare the way for his steps. |
