You Have Been Favorable to Your Land

1{84:1}Unto the end, for the sons of Core, a psalm. [2] Lord, thou hast blessed thy land: thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob.

2{84:3}Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people: thou hast covered all their sins.

3{84:4}Thou hast mitigated all thy anger: thou hast turned away from the wrath of thy indignation.

4{84:5}Convert us, O God our saviour: and turn off thy anger from us.

5{84:6}Wilt thou be angry with us for ever: or wilt thou extend thy wrath from generation to generation?

6{84:7}Thou wilt turn, O God, and bring us to life: and thy people shall rejoice in thee.

7{84:8}Shew us, O Lord, thy mercy; and grant us thy salvation.

8{84:9}I will hear what the Lord God will speak in me: for he will speak peace unto his people: And unto his saints: and unto them that are converted to the heart.

9{84:10}Surely his salvation is near to them that fear him : that glory may dwell in our land.

10{84:11}Mercy and truth have met each other: justice and peace have kissed.

11{84:12}Truth is sprung out of the earth: and justice hath looked down from heaven.

12{84:13}For the Lord will give goodness: and our earth shall yield her fruit.

13{84:14}Justice shall walk before him: and he shall set his steps in the way.
