Psalm 85
|
|
| 85:1
Lord, thou hast been favourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back the
captivity of Jacob. |
 (85:1-13) "Lord, thou hast been favourable unto thy land....."
|
| 85:2
Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their
sin. Selah. |
|
| 85:3
Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the
fierceness of thine anger. |
|
| 85:4
Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease. |
|
| 85:5
Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all
generations? |
|
| 85:6
Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee? |
|
| 85:7
Shew us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation. |
|
| 85:8
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. |
|
| 85:9
Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in
our land. |
|
| 85:10
Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each
other. |
|
| 85:11
Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down
from heaven. |
|
| 85:12
Yea, the LORD shall give that which is good; and our land shall yield her
increase. |
|
| 85:13
Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his
steps.
