Psalm 85
New American Standard Bible
Prayer for God’s Mercy upon the Nation.
For the music director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.
85 Lord, You showed (A)favor to Your land;
You (B)restored the fortunes of Jacob.
2 You (C)forgave the guilt of Your people;
You (D)covered all their sin. Selah
3 You (E)withdrew all Your fury;
You (F)turned away from Your burning anger.
4 (G)Restore us, God of our salvation,
And (H)cause Your indignation toward us to cease.
5 Will (I)You be angry with us forever?
Will You prolong Your anger to [a]all generations?
6 Will You not [b](J)revive us again,
So that Your people may (K)rejoice in You?
7 Show us Your mercy, Lord,
And (L)grant us Your salvation.
8 [c]I will hear what God the Lord will say;
For He will (M)speak peace to His people, to His godly ones;
And may they not (N)turn back to [d]foolishness.
9 Certainly (O)His salvation is near to those who [e]fear Him,
That (P)glory may dwell in our land.
10 (Q)Graciousness and [f]truth have met together;
(R)Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
11 [g]Truth (S)sprouts from the earth,
And righteousness looks down from heaven.
12 Indeed, (T)the Lord will give what is good,
And our (U)land will yield its produce.
13 (V)Righteousness will go before Him
And will make His footsteps into a way.

Oración pidiendo misericordia para la nación
Para el director del coro. Salmo de los hijos de Coré.
85 Oh Señor, tú mostraste favor a tu tierra(A),
cambiaste la cautividad[a] de Jacob(B).
2 Perdonaste la iniquidad de tu pueblo(C),
cubriste todo su pecado(D). (Selah[b])
3 Retiraste toda tu furia(E),
te apartaste del ardor de tu ira(F).
4 Restáuranos(G), oh Dios de nuestra salvación,
haz cesar tu indignación(H) contra nosotros.
5 ¿Estarás airado con nosotros para siempre(I)?
¿Prolongarás tu ira de generación en generación?
6 ¿No volverás a darnos vida(J)
para que tu pueblo se regocije en ti(K)?
7 Muéstranos, oh Señor, tu misericordia,
y danos tu salvación(L).
8 Escucharé lo que dirá Dios el Señor,
porque hablará paz a su pueblo(M), a[c] sus santos;
pero que no vuelvan ellos a la insensatez(N).
9 Ciertamente cercana está su salvación(O) para los que le temen,
para que more su gloria en nuestra tierra(P).
10 La misericordia y la verdad[d] se han encontrado(Q),
la justicia y la paz se han besado(R).
11 La verdad[e] brota de la tierra(S),
y la justicia mira desde los cielos.
12 Ciertamente el Señor dará lo que es bueno(T),
y nuestra tierra dará su fruto(U).
13 La justicia irá delante de Él(V),
y pondrá por camino sus pasos.

Psalm 85[a]
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.
