诗篇 85
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
祈求 神重新恩待他的子民
可拉子孙的诗，交给诗班长。
85 耶和华啊！你恩待了你的地，
恢复了雅各的产业（“恢复了雅各的产业”或译：“领回了雅各被掳的”）。
2 你赦免了你子民的罪孽，
遮盖了他们的一切罪恶。
（细拉）
3 你收回了你的一切忿怒，
使你猛烈的怒气转消。
4 拯救我们的 神啊！求你复兴我们，
求你止住你向我们所发的忿怒。
5 你要永远向我们发怒吗？
你要延长你的怒气到万代吗？
6 你不使我们再活过来，
以致你的子民可以因你欢喜吗？
7 耶和华啊！求你使我们得见你的慈爱，
又把你的救恩赐给我们。
8 我要听 神耶和华所要说的话；
因为他应许赐平安给他的子民，给他的圣民；
但愿他们不要转向愚妄。
9 他的救恩的确临近敬畏他的人，
使他的荣耀住在我们的地上。
10 慈爱和信实彼此相遇，
公义和平安互相亲吻。
11 信实从地上生出，
公义从天上俯视。
12 耶和华也必赐下好处，
我们的地要多出土产。
13 公义必行在他面前，
为他的脚步预备道路。

A Prayer for the Nation
For the director of music. A psalm of the sons of Korah [C descendants of Kohath, son of Levi, who served as temple musicians; 1 Chr. 6:22].
85 Lord, you ·have been kind to [delight in] your land;
you ·brought back [restored the fortunes of; C perhaps at the end of the exile] the people of Jacob [C another name for Israel].
2 You forgave the guilt of the people
and covered all their sins. ·
3 You ·stopped [drew back from] all your anger;
you turned back from your ·strong [burning] anger.
4 God our Savior, ·bring us back again [restore us again].
Stop being angry with us.
5 Will you be angry with us forever?
Will you ·stay angry [draw out your anger against us] from now on?
6 Won’t you give us life again?
Your people would rejoice in you.
7 Lord, show us your ·love [loyalty],
and ·save us [L give to us your salvation/victory].
8 I will listen to what God the Lord says.
He has ·ordered [spoken; promised] ·peace [prosperity] for ·those who worship him [L his people, his saints/loyal ones].
Don’t let them go back to foolishness.
9 ·God will soon save those who respect him [L His salvation/victory is near to those who fear him; Prov. 1:7],
and his glory will ·be seen [L dwell] in our land.
10 ·Love [Loyalty] and ·truth [faithfulness] ·belong to God’s people [L meet];
·goodness [righteousness] and ·peace [prosperity] ·will be theirs [L kiss].
11 ·On earth people will be loyal to God [Faithfulness sprouts/blooms from the earth/land],
and ·God’s goodness [righteousness] will ·shine [look] down from heaven.
12 The Lord will give his ·goodness [or good gifts],
and the land will give its crops.
13 ·Goodness [Righteousness] will go before ·God [L him]
and prepare the way for ·him [L his steps].
Psalm 85
King James Version
85 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.
