| 1 | Unto the end, for the sons of Core, a psalm. Lord, thou hast blessed thy land: thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob. | LORD, you were favorable to your land; you restored the fortunes of Jacob. | For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm. You, LORD, showed favor to your land; you restored the fortunes of Jacob. | |
| 2 | Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people: thou hast covered all their sins. | You forgave the iniquity of your people; you covered all their sin. Selah | You forgave the iniquity of your people and covered all their sins. | |
| 3 | Thou hast mitigated all thy anger: thou best turned away from the wrath of thy indignation. | You withdrew all your wrath; you turned from your hot anger. | You set aside all your wrath and turned from your fierce anger. | |
| 4 | Convert us, O God our saviour: and turn off thy anger from us. | Restore us again, O God of our salvation, and put away your indignation toward us! | Restore us again, God our Savior, and put away your displeasure toward us. | |
| 5 | Wilt thou be angry with us for ever: or wilt thou extend thy wrath from generation to generation? | Will you be angry with us forever? Will you prolong your anger to all generations? | Will you be angry with us forever? Will you prolong your anger through all generations? | |
| 6 | Thou wilt turn, O God, and bring us to life: and thy people shall rejoice in thee. | Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you? | Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you? | |
| 7 | Shew us, O Lord, thy mercy; and grant us thy salvation. | Show us your steadfast love, O LORD, and grant us your salvation. | Show us your unfailing love, LORD, and grant us your salvation. | |
| 8 | 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. | Let me hear what God the LORD will speak, for he will speak peace to his people, to his saints; but let them not turn back to folly. | I will listen to what God the LORD says; he promises peace to his people, his faithful servants— but let them not turn to folly. | |
| 9 | Surely his salvation is near to them that fear him: that glory may dwell in our land. | Surely his salvation is near to those who fear him, that glory may dwell in our land. | Surely his salvation is near those who fear him, that his glory may dwell in our land. | |
| 10 | Mercy and truth have met each other: justice and peace have kissed. | Steadfast love and faithfulness meet; righteousness and peace kiss each other. | Love and faithfulness meet together; righteousness and peace kiss each other. | |
| 11 | Truth is sprung out of the earth: and justice hath looked down from heaven. | Faithfulness springs up from the ground, and righteousness looks down from the sky. | Faithfulness springs forth from the earth, and righteousness looks down from heaven. | |
| 12 | For the Lord will give goodness: and our earth shall yield her fruit. | Yes, the LORD will give what is good, and our land will yield its increase. | The LORD will indeed give what is good, and our land will yield its harvest. | |
| 13 | Justice shall walk before him: and shall set his steps in the way. | Righteousness will go before him and make his footsteps a way. | Righteousness goes before him and prepares the way for his steps. | |
