Mercy and Truth
For the Pure and Shining One
A prophetic song composed by the prophetic singers of Korah’s clan
1Lord, your love has poured out
so many amazing blessings on our land!
You’ve restored Jacob’s destiny from captivity.
2You’ve forgiven our many sins and covered
every one of them in your love.
Pause in his presence
3So now it’s obvious that your blazing anger has ended and
the furious fire of wrath has been extinguished by your mercy.
4So bring us back to loving you, God our Savior.
Restore our hearts so that we’ll never again
feel your anger rise against us.
5Will you forever hold a grudge?
Will your anger endure for all time?
6Revive us again, O God! I know you will! Give us a fresh start!
Then all your people will taste your joy and gladness.
7Pour out even more of your love on us!
Reveal more of your kindness and restore us back to you!
8Now I’ll listen carefully for your voice
and wait to hear whatever you say.
Let me hear your promise of peace—
the message every one of your godly lovers longs to hear.
Don’t let us in our ignorance turn back from following you.
9For I know your power and presence shines on all your devoted lovers.
Your glory always hovers over all who bow low before you.
10Your mercy and your truth have married each other.
Your righteousness and peace have kissed.
11Flowers of your faithfulness are blooming on the earth.
Righteousness shines down from the sky.
12Yes, the Lord keeps raining down blessing after blessing,
and prosperity will drench the land with a bountiful harvest.
13For deliverance # 85:13 Or “righteousness.” goes before him,
preparing a path for his steps.

(For the one directing. Of the Bnei Korach. Mizmor)
1 Hashem, Thou hast been favorable unto Thy land; Thou hast brought back the captivity of Ya'akov.
2 Thou hast forgiven the avon (iniquity) of Amecha (Thy people); Thou hast covered all their chattat (sin). Selah
3 Thou hast withdrawn all Thy wrath; Thou hast turned from Thine charon af.
4 Turn us, O Elohei Yisheinu (G-d of our salvation), and put away Thine ka'as (anger) toward us.
5 Wilt Thou be angry with us l'olam? Wilt Thou draw out Thine anger l'dor vador?
6 Wilt Thou not revive us again; that Amecha (Thy people) may rejoice in Thee?
7 Show us chasdecha (Thy chesed, kindness, steadfast love), Hashem, and grant us Thy salvation.
8 I will hear what HaEl Hashem will say; for He will speak shalom unto His people, and to His Chasidim; but let them not turn again to folly.
9 Surely His salvation is karov (near) them that fear Him; that kavod may dwell in Artzeinu (our land).
10 Chesed and emes will meet together; tzedek and shalom will kiss each other.
11 Emes shall titzmach (sprout forth)#85:11 T.N. Tzemach — Branch, Sprout — is the code name for Moshiach and the coming Tzemachʼs Namesake in Zech 6:11-12 is Yehoshua, Yeshua — see Ezra 3:8; Zech 3:8; 6:11-12. Go to Jer 23:5 and look at all the references. These are among the most important Scriptures in the Bible because it is here that the saving Name of Moshiach Tzidkeinu is prophetically communicated for salvation; the word Tzemach means “Moshiach” and it is the code word par excellence for Moshiach in the post-Exilic references in the minor prophets; this veiled reference to Moshiach was necessary in the situation of the Return under Persian rule when talk of a coming king was a delicate matter. out of ha'aretz; and tzedek shall look down from Shomayim.
12 Yes, Hashem shall give that which is tov; and Artzeinu (our land) shall yield her yevul (increase, produce).
13 Tzedek shall go before Him; and shall set us in the Derech of His steps.
