| 85:1
| Lord, thou hast been favourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back
the captivity of Jacob.
|
| 85:2
| Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all
their sin. Selah.
|
| 85:3
| Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the
fierceness of thine anger.
|
| 85:4
| Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to
cease.
|
| 85:5
| Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to
all generations?
|
| 85:6
| Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?
|
| 85:7
| Shew us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation.
|
| 85:8
| I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace unto
his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.
|
| 85:9
| Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in
our land.
|
| 85:10
| Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed
each other.
|
| 85:11
| Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down
from heaven.
|
| 85:12
| Yea, the LORD shall give that which is good; and our land shall yield
her increase.
|
| 85:13
| Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his
steps.
