Psalm 85
English Standard Version
Revive Us Again
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of (A)the Sons of Korah.
85 Lord, you were (B)favorable to your land;
you (C)restored the fortunes of Jacob.
2 You (D)forgave the iniquity of your people;
you (E)covered all their sin. Selah
3 You withdrew all your wrath;
you (F)turned from your hot anger.
4 (G)Restore us again, O God of our salvation,
and put away your indignation toward us!
5 (H)Will you be angry with us forever?
Will you prolong your anger to all generations?
6 Will you not (I)revive us again,
that your people may (J)rejoice in you?
7 Show us your steadfast love, O Lord,
and grant us your salvation.
8 (K)Let me hear what God the Lord will speak,
for he will (L)speak peace to his people, to his (M)saints;
but let them not (N)turn back to (O)folly.
9 Surely his (P)salvation is near to those who fear him,
that (Q)glory may dwell in our land.
10 (R)Steadfast love and faithfulness meet;
(S)righteousness and peace kiss each other.
11 Faithfulness springs up from the ground,
and righteousness looks down from the sky.
12 Yes, (T)the Lord will give what is good,
and our land (U)will yield its increase.
13 (V)Righteousness will go before him
and make his footsteps a way.
Psaltaren 85
Svenska 1917
85 För sångmästaren; av Koras söner; en psalm.
2 HERRE, du var förr ditt land nådig, du upprättade åter Jakobs hus.
3 Du förlät ditt folks missgärning, du överskylde all dess synd. Sela.
4 Du lät all din förgrymmelse fara och vände dig ifrån din vredes glöd.
5 Så vänd dig nu åter till oss, du vår frälsnings Gud, och upphör med din förtörnelse mot oss.
6 Vill du då vredgas på oss evinnerligen och låta din vrede vara från släkte till släkte?
7 Vill du icke åter giva oss liv, så att ditt folk får glädjas i dig?
8 HERRE, låt oss se din nåd, och giv oss din frälsning.
9 Jag vill höra vad Gud, HERREN, talar: se, han talar frid till sitt folk och till sina fromma; må de blott icke vända åter till dårskap.
10 Ja, hans frälsning är nära dem som frukta honom, och så skall ära bo i vårt land.
11 Godhet och trofasthet skola där mötas, rättfärdighet och frid kyssas;
12 trofasthet skall växa upp ur jorden och rättfärdighet blicka ned från himmelen.
13 HERREN skall giva oss vad gott är, och vårt land skall giva sin gröda.
14 Rättfärdighet skall gå framför honom, den skall ock stadigt följa i hans spår.
Psalm 85

For the director of music. Of the Sons of Korah. A psalm.
1 You, Lord, showed favor to your land;
you restored the fortunes(A) of Jacob.
2 You forgave(B) the iniquity(C) of your people
and covered all their sins.[b]
3 You set aside all your wrath(D)
and turned from your fierce anger.(E)
4 Restore(F) us again, God our Savior,(G)
and put away your displeasure toward us.
5 Will you be angry with us forever?(H)
Will you prolong your anger through all generations?
6 Will you not revive(I) us again,
that your people may rejoice(J) in you?
7 Show us your unfailing love,(K) Lord,
and grant us your salvation.(L)
8 I will listen to what God the Lord says;
he promises peace(M) to his people, his faithful servants—
but let them not turn to folly.(N)
9 Surely his salvation(O) is near those who fear him,
that his glory(P) may dwell in our land.
10 Love and faithfulness(Q) meet together;
righteousness(R) and peace kiss each other.
11 Faithfulness springs forth from the earth,
and righteousness(S) looks down from heaven.
12 The Lord will indeed give what is good,(T)
and our land will yield(U) its harvest.
13 Righteousness goes before him
and prepares the way for his steps.
