Psalm 85 - Revised Version with Apocrypha 1895 Revised Version with Apocrypha 1895
Psalm 85

¹ LORD, Thou hast been favourable unto thy land: Thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.

² Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, Thou hast covered all their sin. Selah

³ Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: Thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger.

⁴ Turn us, O God of our salvation, And cause thine indignation toward us to cease.

⁵ Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? Wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?

⁶ Wilt thou not quicken us again: That thy people may rejoice in thee?

⁷ Shew us thy mercy, O LORD, And grant us thy salvation.

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.

⁹ Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; That glory may dwell in our land.

¹⁰ Mercy and truth are met together; Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

¹¹ Truth springeth out of the earth; And righteousness hath looked clown from heaven.

¹² Yea, the LORD shall give that which is good; And our land shall yield her increase.

¹³ Righteousness shall go before him; And shall make his footsteps a way to walk in.
