Psalms • Chapter 85
1
LORD, you poured out blessings on your land!<br>You restored the fortunes of Israel.<br>
2
You forgave the guilt of your people —<br>yes, you covered all their sins. <i>Interlude</i><br>
3
You held back your fury.<br>You kept back your blazing anger.<br>
4
Now restore us again, O God (Elohim) of our salvation.<br>Put aside your anger against us once more.<br>
5
Will you be angry with us always?<br>Will you prolong your wrath to all generations?<br>
6
Won’t you revive us again,<br>so your people can rejoice in you?<br>
7
Show us your unfailing love, O LORD,<br>and grant us your salvation.<br>
8
I listen carefully to what God (Elohim) the LORD is saying,<br>for he speaks peace to his faithful people.<br>But let them not return to their foolish ways.<br>
9
Surely his salvation is near to those who fear him,<br>so our land will be filled with his glory.<br>
10
Unfailing love and truth have met together.<br>Righteousness and peace have kissed!<br>
11
Truth springs up from the earth,<br>and righteousness smiles down from heaven.<br>
12
Yes, the LORD pours down his blessings.<br>Our land will yield its bountiful harvest.<br>
13
Righteousness goes as a herald before him,<br>preparing the way for his steps.<br>
