| Chapter 84 |
1 |
Unto the end, for the sons of Core, a psalm.
|
2 |
Lord, thou hast blessed thy land: thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob.
|
3 |
Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people: thou hast covered all their sins.
|
4 |
Thou hast mitigated all thy anger: thou best turned away from the wrath of thy indignation.
|
5 |
Convert us, O God our saviour: and turn off thy anger from us.
|
6 |
Wilt thou be angry with us for ever: or wilt thou extend thy wrath from generation to generation?
|
7 |
Thou wilt turn, O God, and bring us to life: and thy people shall rejoice in thee.
|
8 |
Shew us, O Lord, thy mercy; and grant us thy salvation.
|
9 |
I will hear what the Lord God will speak in me: for he will speak peace unto his people: And unto his saints: and unto them that are converted to the heart.
|
10 |
Surely his salvation is near to them that fear him: that glory may dwell in our land.
|
11 |
Mercy and truth have met each other: justice and peace have kissed.
|
12 |
Truth is sprung out of the earth: and justice hath looked down from heaven.
|
13 |
For the Lord will give goodness: and our earth shall yield her fruit.
|
14 |
Justice shall walk before him: and shall set his steps in the way.
