Psalmen 85

1. ¹To the Overseer. -- By sons of Korah. A Psalm. Thou hast accepted, O Jehovah, Thy land, Thou hast turned `to' the captivity of Jacob.
2. ²Thou hast borne away the iniquity of Thy people, Thou hast covered all their sin. Selah.
3. ³Thou hast gathered up all Thy wrath, Thou hast turned back from the fierceness of Thine anger.
4. ⁴Turn back `to' us, O God of our salvation, And make void Thine anger with us.
5. ⁵To the age art Thou angry against us? Dost Thou draw out Thine anger To generation and generation?
6. ⁶Dost Thou not turn back? Thou revivest us, And Thy people do rejoice in Thee.
7. ⁷Show us, O Jehovah, thy kindness, And Thy salvation Thou dost give to us.
8. ⁸I hear what God Jehovah speaketh, For He speaketh peace unto His people, And unto His saints, and they turn not back to folly.
9. ⁹Only, near to those fearing Him `is' His salvation, That honour may dwell in our land.
10. ¹⁰Kindness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have kissed,
11. ¹¹Truth from the earth springeth up, And righteousness from heaven looketh out,
12. ¹²Jehovah also giveth that which is good, And our land doth give its increase.
13. ¹³Righteousness before Him goeth, And maketh His footsteps for a way!
