85:1 To the choirmaster. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah. Lord, you were favourable to your land; you restored the fortunes of Jacob.
85:2 You forgave the iniquity of your people; you covered all their sin. Selah
85:3 You withdrew all your wrath; you turned from your hot anger.

85:5 Will you be angry with us for ever? Will you prolong your anger to all generations?
85:6 Will you not revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?
85:7 Show us your steadfast love, O Lord, and grant us your salvation.
85:8 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.
85:9 Surely his salvation is near to those who fear him, that glory may dwell in our land.
85:10 Steadfast love and faithfulness meet; righteousness and peace kiss each other.
85:11 Faithfulness springs up from the ground, and righteousness looks down from the sky.
85:12 Yes, the Lord will give what is good, and our land will yield its increase.
85:13 Righteousness will go before him and make his footsteps a way.
