PSAL. LXXXV. To the chief musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. (Book 85)
O Lord, thou hast been favourableto thy beloved Land:Jacobs captivity thou hastrecall'd with mighty hand.Thou pardoned thy people hastLine 2 all their iniquities,Thou all their trespasses and sinshast covered from thine eyes.
Thou tookst off all thine ire, and turn'dstLine 3 from thy wraths furiousnesse.Turn us, God of our health, and causeLine 4 thy wrath 'gainst us to cease.Shall thy displeasure thus endureLine 5 against us without end?Wilt thou to generations allthine anger forth extend?
That in thee may thy people joy,Line 6 wilt thou not us revive?Shew us thy mercy, Lord, to usLine 7 do thy salvation give.Line 8
descriptionPage 173
I'le hear what God, the Lord; will speak:Line 8 to his folk He'll speak peace,And to His saints; but let them notreturn to foolishnesse.
To them that fear Him, surely nearLine 9 is His salvation;That glory in our land may haveher habitation.Truth met with mercy, righteousnesseLine 10 and peace kiss'd mutually.Truth springs from earth, and righteousnesseLine 11 looks down from heaven hie.
Yea, what is good the Lord shall give:Line 12 our land shall yeeld increase.Justice, to set us in His steps,Line 13 shall go before His face.
