Psalm 85:6

Psalms of David in Metre 1650 (Scottish Psalter)

That in thee may thy people joy, wilt thou not us revive?

See the chapter Copy

So henceforth we will not go back, nor turn from thee at all: O do thou quicken us, and we upon thy name will call.

O with thy tender mercies, Lord, us early satisfy; So we rejoice shall all our days, and still be glad in thee.

Thou, Lord, who great adversities, and sore, to me didst show, Shalt quicken, and bring me again from depths of earth below.

Let Isr'el's help from Sion come: when back the Lord shall bring His captives, Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall sing.

Though I in midst of trouble walk, I life from thee shall have: 'Gainst my foes' wrath thou'lt stretch thine hand; thy right hand shall me save.

Let Isr'el in his Maker joy, and to him praises sing: Let all that Sion's children are be joyful in their King.

O God, why hast thou cast us off? is it for evermore? Against thy pasture-sheep why doth thine anger smoke so sore?

For ever is his mercy gone? fails his word evermore?
