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, A Psalm for the sons of Korah.]] LORD, thou hast been favorable to thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.

 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 thy anger.

 85:4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thy anger towards us to cease.

 85:5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thy anger to all generations?

 85:6 Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?

 85:7 Show 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 to 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 Yes, the LORD will 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.
