诗篇 85
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
为国家求福
可拉后裔的诗，交给乐长。
85 耶和华啊，你赐福了你的土地，
使雅各的子孙重返家园。
2 你赦免了你子民的罪过，
遮盖了他们所有的过犯。（细拉）
3 你收回自己的怒气，
不发烈怒。
4 拯救我们的上帝啊，
求你复兴我们，
止息你对我们的怒气。
5 你要向我们永远发怒吗？
你的怒气要延续到万代吗？
6 你不再复兴我们，
使你的子民靠你欢喜吗？
7 耶和华啊，求你向我们施慈爱，拯救我们。
8 我要听耶和华上帝所说的话，
因为祂应许赐平安给祂忠心的子民。
但我们不可再犯罪。
9 祂拯救敬畏祂的人，
好让祂的荣耀常驻在我们的地上。
10 慈爱和忠信同行，
公义与平安相亲。
11 忠信从地而生，
公义从天而现。
12 耶和华赐下祝福，
我们的土地就出产丰富。
13 公义要行在祂面前，为祂开路。
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.
Psalm 85
1599 Geneva Bible
85 1 Because God withdrew not his rods from his Church after their return from Babylon, first they put him in mind of their deliverance, to the intent that he should not leave the work of his grace imperfect. 5 Next they complain of their long affliction. 8 And thirdly, they rejoice in hope of felicity promised. 9 For their deliverance was a figure of Christ’s kingdom, under the which should be perfect felicity.
To him that excelleth. A Psalm committed to the sons of Korah.
1 Lord, thou hast been [a]favorable unto thy land: thou hast brought again the captivity of Jacob.
2 Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, and [b]covered all their sins. Selah.
3 Thou hast withdrawn all thine anger, and hast turned back from the [c]fierceness of thy wrath.
4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, and release thine anger toward us.
5 Wilt thou be angry with us [d]forever? and wilt thou prolong thy wrath from one generation to another?
6 Wilt thou not turn again and quicken us, that thy people may rejoice in thee?
7 Show us thy mercy, O Lord, and grant us thy [e]salvation.
8 I will hearken what the Lord God will say: for he will speak [f]peace unto his people, and to his Saints, that they turn not again to folly.
9 Surely his salvation is near to them that fear him, that glory may dwell in our land.
10 Mercy and truth shall meet, righteousness and peace shall kiss one another.
11 [g]Truth shall bud out of the earth, and righteousness shall look down from heaven.
12 Yea, the Lord shall give good things, and our land shall give her increase.
13 [h]Righteousness shall go before him, and shall set her steps in the way.
