Psalms 85

1 The psalmist, out of the experience of former mercies, prayeth for the continuance thereof. 8 He promiseth to wait thereon, out of confidence of God's goodness.

 85:1 ¶ [[To the Chief Musician. For the Sons of Korah. A Melody.]] Thou hast accepted, O Yahweh, thy land, Thou hast brought back the captives of Jacob;

 85:2 Thou hast taken away, the iniquity of thy people, Thou hast covered, all their sin. [Selah.]

 85:3 Thou hast withdrawn all thine indignation, Thou hast ceased from the glow of thine anger.

 85:4 Restore us, O God of our salvation, And take away thy vexation towards us.

 85:5 To times age-abiding, wilt thou be angry with us? Wilt thou prolong thine anger, from generation to generation?

 85:6 Wilt not, thou thyself, again give us life, That, thy people, may rejoice in thee.

 85:7 Show us, O Yahweh, thy lovingkindness, And, thy salvation, wilt thou grant us.

 85:8 ¶ I will hear, what GOD—Yahweh—will speak,—For he will bespeak prosperity to his people, And to his men of lovingkindness, And to them who return with their heart unto him.

 85:9 Surely, near unto them who revere him, is his salvation, That the Glory, may settle down, in our land.

 85:10 Lovingkindness and faithfulness, have met together, Righteousness and prosperity, have kissed each other;

 85:11 Faithfulness, out of the earth, doth spring forth, And, righteousness, out of the heavens, hath looked down.

 85:12 Yahweh himself too, will give us the blessing, And, our land, shall yield her increase.

 85:13 Righteousness, before him, shall march long,—That he may make, into a way, the steps of its feet.
