Psalms 85:1-10 ▼

1 For the choir director. A psalm of the sons of Korah. LORD, you showed favor to your land; you restored the fortunes of Jacob.

2 You forgave your people’s guilt; you covered all their sin. Selah

3 You withdrew all your fury; you turned from your burning anger.

4 Return to us, God of our salvation, and abandon your displeasure with us.

5 Will you be angry with us forever? Will you prolong your anger for all generations?

6 Will you not revive us again so that your people may rejoice in you?

7 Show us your faithful love, LORD, and give us your salvation.

8 I will listen to what God will say; surely the LORD will declare peace to his people, his faithful ones, and not let them go back to foolish ways.

9 His salvation is very near those who fear him, so that glory may dwell in our land.

10 Faithful love and truth will join together; righteousness and peace will embrace.
