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.
Psaltaren 85
nuBibeln (Swedish Contemporary Bible)
Bön om folkets återupprättelse
85 För körledaren. Av Korachs ättlingar, en psalm.
2 Herre, du har visat välvilja mot ditt land.
Du har upprättat Jakobs lycka.
3 Du lyfte av ditt folks skuld
och förlät dem deras synd. Séla
4 Du drog tillbaka ditt raseri
och släckte din vredes glöd.
5 Återupprätta oss, Gud, du vår räddare,
lägg bort ditt missnöje med oss.
6 Ska du alltid vara vred på oss?
Ska din vrede sträcka sig även till kommande generationer?
7 Vill du inte göra oss levande igen,
så att ditt folk kan glädja sig i dig?
8 Herre, visa oss din nåd
och ge oss din frälsning.
9 Jag vill höra vad Gud säger.
Herren talar frid till sitt folk, till sina fromma,
men må de inte återvända till dårskap.
10 Hans frälsning är verkligen nära dem som fruktar honom,
för att hans härlighet ska bo i vårt land.
11 Nåd och trofasthet ska mötas
och rättfärdighet och frid kyssas.
12 Sanningen ska spira upp ur jorden
och rättfärdigheten blicka ner från himlen.
13 Herren själv ska ge allt gott,
och vårt land ska ge sin skörd.
14 Rättfärdigheten ska gå före honom
och bana väg för hans steg.
Psalm 85

Prayer that the Lord Will Restore Favor to the Land
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm (A)of the sons of Korah.
85 Lord, You have been favorable to Your land;
You have (B)brought back the captivity of Jacob.
2 You have forgiven the iniquity of Your people;
You have covered all their sin. Selah

You have turned from the fierceness of Your anger.
4 (C)Restore us, O God of our salvation,
And cause Your anger toward us to cease.
5 (D)Will You be angry with us forever?
Will You prolong Your anger to all generations?

That Your people may rejoice in You?
7 Show us Your mercy, Lord,
And grant us Your salvation.
8 I will hear what God the Lord will speak,
For He will speak peace
To His people and to His saints;
But let them not turn back to [a]folly.
9 Surely (F)His salvation is near to those who fear Him,
(G)That glory may dwell in our land.
10 Mercy and truth have met together;
(H)Righteousness and peace have kissed.
11 Truth shall spring out of the earth,
And righteousness shall look down from heaven.
12 (I)Yes, the Lord will give what is good;
And our land will yield its increase.
13 Righteousness will go before Him,
And shall make His footsteps our pathway.
