1: LORD, thou hast been favourable unto thy land: thou hast
brought back the captivity of Jacob. |
|
2: Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast
covered all their sin. Selah. |
|
3:
Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself
from the fierceness of thine anger. |
|
4: Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward
us to cease. |
|
5: Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine
anger to all generations? |
|
6: Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in
thee? |
|
7: Shew us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation.
|
|
8: I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak
peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to
folly. |
|
9: Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory
may dwell in our land. |
|
10: Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace
have kissed each other. |
|
11: Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall
look down from heaven. |
|
12: Yea, the LORD shall give that which is good; and our land
shall yield her increase. |
|
13: Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the
way of his steps. |
