Psalm 85

Revive Us Again

85To the choirmaster. A Psalm of ⁿthe Sons of Korah.

¹Lord, you were ^ofavorable to your land;

you ^prestored the fortunes of Jacob.

²You ^qforgave the iniquity of your people;

you ^qcovered all their sin. Selah

³You withdrew all your wrath;

you ^rturned from your hot anger.

^4sRestore us again, O God of our salvation,

and put away your indignation toward us!

^5tWill you be angry with us forever?

Will you prolong your anger to all generations?

⁶Will you not ^urevive us again,

that your people may ^vrejoice in you?

⁷Show us your steadfast love, O Lord,

and grant us your salvation.

^8wLet me hear what God the Lord will speak,

for he will ^xspeak peace to his people, to his ^ysaints;

but let them not ^zturn back to ^afolly.

⁹Surely his ^bsalvation is near to those who fear him,

that ^cglory may dwell in our land.

^10dSteadfast love and faithfulness meet;

^erighteousness and peace kiss each other.

¹¹Faithfulness springs up from the ground,

and righteousness looks down from the sky.

¹²Yes, ^fthe Lord will give what is good,

and our land ^gwill yield its increase.

^13hRighteousness will go before him

and make his footsteps a way.
