^8 (A)Let me hear what God the Lord will speak,
    for he will ^(B)speak peace to his people, to his ^(C)saints;
    but let them not ^(D)turn back to ^(E)folly.
⁹ Surely his ^(F)salvation is near to those who fear him,
    that ^(G)glory may dwell in our land.

^10 (H)Steadfast love and faithfulness meet;
    ^(I)righteousness and peace kiss each other.
¹¹ Faithfulness springs up from the ground,
    and righteousness looks down from the sky.
¹² Yes, ^(J)the Lord will give what is good,
    and our land ^(K)will yield its increase.
^13 (L)Righteousness will go before him
    and make his footsteps a way.
