Psalm 85 · Du hast deinem Land Gnade erwiesen

1For the leader. Of the Korahites. A psalm.

2O ETERNAL One, You will favor Your land,restore Jacob’s fortune;

3You will forgive Your people’s iniquity,pardon all their sins; selah

4You will withdraw all Your anger,turn away from Your rage.

5Turn again, O God, our helper,revoke Your displeasure with us.

6Will You be angry with us forever,prolong Your wrath for all generations?

7Surely You will revive us again,so that Your people may rejoice in You.

8Show us, O ETERNAL One, Your faithfulness;grant us Your deliverance.

9Let me hear what God, the ETERNAL, will speak,as a promise of well-being to the faithful ones—this people;may they not turn to folly.

10Help is very near those who show reverence,to make God’s glory dwell in our land.

11Faithfulness and truth meet;justice and well-being kiss.

12Truth springs up from the earth;justice looks down from heaven.

13GOD also bestows bounty;our land yields its produce.

14Justice walks in frontas [God] sets out on the way.
