1 | Yahweh, you have been favorable to your land. You have restored the fortunes of Jacob. |
2 | You have forgiven the iniquity of your people. You have covered all their sin. Selah. |
3 | You have taken away all your wrath. You have turned from the fierceness of your anger. |
4 | Turn us, God of our salvation, and cause your indignation toward us to cease. |
5 | Will you be angry with us forever? Will you draw out your anger to all generations? |
6 | Won't you revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you? |
7 | Show us your loving kindness, Yahweh. Grant us your salvation. |
8 | I will hear what God, Yahweh, will speak, for he will speak peace to his people, his saints; but let them not turn again to folly. |
9 | Surely his salvation is near those who fear him, that glory may dwell in our land. |
10 | Mercy and truth meet together. Righteousness and peace have kissed each other. |
11 | Truth springs out of the earth. Righteousness has looked down from heaven. |
12 | Yes, Yahweh will give that which is good. Our land will yield its increase. |
13 | Righteousness goes before him, And prepares the way for his steps. Psalm 86 A Prayer by David. |
