¹ [To the chiefe musician, a Psalme for the sonnes of Korah.] Lord, thou hast bene fauourable vnto thy land: thou hast brought backe the captiuity of Iacob. ² Thou hast forgiuen the iniquitie of thy people, thou hast couered all their sinne. Selah. ³ Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thy selfe from the fiercenesse of thine anger. ⁴ Turne vs, O God of our saluation: and cause thine anger towards vs to cease. ⁵ Wilt thou be angry with vs for euer? wilt thou drawe out thine anger to all generations? ⁶ Wilt thou not reuiue vs againe: that thy people may reioyce in thee? ⁷ Shew vs thy mercy, O Lord; and graunt vs thy saluation.

⁸ I will heare what God the Lord will speake: for hee will speake peace vnto his people, and to his Saints: but let them not turne againe to folly. ⁹ Surely his saluation is nigh them that feare him; that glory may dwell in our land. ¹⁰ Mercy and truth are met together: righteousnesse and peace haue kissed each other. ¹¹ Truth shall spring out of the earth: and righteousnesse shall looke downe from heauen. ¹² Yea the Lord shall giue that which is good: and our land shall yeeld her increase. ¹³ Righteousnes shall go before him: and shall set vs in the way of his steps.
