Psalms 85

1 (84-1) <Unto the end, for the sons of Core, a psalm.> (84-2) Lord, thou hast blessed thy land: thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob.2 (84-3) Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people: thou hast covered all their sins.3 (84-4) Thou hast mitigated all thy anger: thou hast turned away from the wrath of thy indignation.4 (84-5) Convert us, O God our saviour: and turn off thy anger from us.5 (84-6) Wilt thou be angry with us for ever: or wilt thou extend thy wrath from generation to generation?6 (84-7) Thou wilt turn, O God, and bring us to life: and thy people shall rejoice in thee.7 (84-8) Shew us, O Lord, thy mercy; and grant us thy salvation.

8 (84-9) I will hear what the Lord God will speak in me: for he will speak peace unto his people: And unto his saints: and unto them that are converted to the heart.9 (84-10) Surely his salvation is near to them that fear him:that glory may dwell in our land.10 (84-11) Mercy and truth have met each other: justice and peace have kissed.11 (84-12) Truth is sprung out of the earth: and justice hath looked down from heaven.12 (84-13) For the Lord will give goodness: and our earth shall yield her fruit.13 (84-14) Justice shall walk before him: and ,shall set his steps in the way.
