(A psalm by the people of Korah for the music leader.)

Our Lord , you have blessed your land and made all go well for Jacob's descendants. 2 You have forgiven the sin and taken away the guilt of your people. 3 Your fierce anger is no longer aimed at us. 4 Our Lord and our God, you save us! Please bring us back home and don't be angry. 5 Will you always be angry with us and our families? 6 Won't you give us fresh life and let your people be glad because of you? 7 Show us your love and save us!

Bible Verse Review

Psalms 50:23, Psalms 91:16, Jeremiah 42:12

Reciprocal: Genesis 43:14 - And God Genesis 49:18 - General Isaiah 26:3 - wilt

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Show us thy mercy, O Lord,.... Or, "thy grace" o and goodness, the riches of which are shown forth in Christ; the mercy promised to Abraham and others, long expected, wished, and prayed for; his pardoning mercy, justification, salvation, and eternal life, by his free grace:

and grant us thy salvation; Jesus, the Saviour, and salvation by him, an interest in it, and the joys of it; which is all a free gift, a grant of divine favour, and not according to the merits and works of men.

o חסדך "bonitatem tuam", Tigurine version, Musculus; "benignitatem tuam", Junius Tremellius, Piscator "gratiam tuam", Cocceius, Gejerus.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Shew us thy mercy, O Lord - That is, Manifest thy mercy in returning to us; in forgiving our sins; in taking from us the tokens of thy displeasure.

And grant us thy salvation - Salvation or deliverance from our present trouble and calamities.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Psalms 85:7. Show us thy mercy — Blot out all our sins.

And grant us thy salvation. — Give us such a complete deliverance as is worthy of thy majesty and mercy to bestow!
