Psalms 85

PSALM 85

1To the overcomer, the song of the sons of Korah . Lord, thou hast blessed thy land; thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob.

2Thou hast forgiven the wicked-ness of thy people; thou hast covered all the sins of them.

3Thou hast assuaged all thine ire; thou hast turned away from the ire of thine indignation.

4God, our health, convert thou us; and turn away thine ire from us.

5Whether thou shalt be wroth to us without end; either shalt thou hold forth thine ire from generation into generation?

6God, thou converted, shalt quicken us; and thy people shall be glad in thee.

7Lord, show thy mercy to us; and give thine health to us.

8I shall hear what the Lord God shall speak in me; for he shall speak peace to his people. And on his holy men; and on them that be turned to heart.

9Nevertheless his health is nigh men dreading him; that glory dwell in our land.

10Mercy and truth met themselves; rightwiseness and peace were kissed.

11Truth came forth of the earth; and rightfulness [or rightwiseness] beheld from heaven.

12For the Lord shall give benignity; and our earth shall give his fruit.

13Rightfulness [or Rightwiseness] shall go before him; and shall set his steps in the way.
