Psalm 85 - Heartlight

¹You showed favor to Your land, O LORD;

You restored Jacob from captivity.

²You forgave the iniquity of Your people;

You covered all their sin.

³You withheld all Your fury;

You turned from Your burning anger.

⁴Restore us, O God of our salvation,

and put away Your displeasure toward us.

⁵Will You be angry with us forever?

Will You draw out Your anger to all generations?

⁶Will You not revive us again,

that Your people may rejoice in You?

⁷Show us Your loving devotion, O LORD,

and grant us Your salvation.

⁸I will listen to what God the LORD will say;

for He will surely speak peace to His people and His saints;

He will not let them return to folly.

⁹Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him,

that His glory may dwell in our land.

¹⁰Loving devotion and faithfulness have joined together;

righteousness and peace have kissed.

¹¹Faithfulness sprouts from the earth,

and righteousness looks down from heaven.

¹²The LORD will indeed provide what is good,

and our land will yield its increase.

¹³Righteousness will go before Him

to prepare the way for His steps.
