Psalm 85 - King James 2000

¹ [To the Chief Musician upon gittith. A Psalm for the Sons of Korah.] LORD, you have been favorable unto your land: you have brought back the captivity of Jacob.

² You have forgiven the iniquity of your people, you have covered all their sin. Selah.

³ You have taken away all your anger: you have turned yourself from the fierceness of your anger.

⁴ Restore us, O God of our salvation, and cause your anger toward us to cease.

⁵ Will you be angry with us forever? will you draw out your anger to all generations?

⁶ Will you not revive us again: that your people may rejoice in you?

⁷ Show us your mercy, O LORD, and grant us your 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 near those 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 shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.

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

¹³ Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.
