Psalms 85
85
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.

PSALM 85
Prayer for God’s Mercy upon the Nation.
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.
1O Lord, You have [at last] shown favor to Your land [of Canaan];
You have restored [from Babylon] the captives of Jacob (Israel).
2You have forgiven the wickedness of Your people;
You have covered all their sin. Selah.
3You have withdrawn all Your wrath,
You have turned away from Your burning anger.
4Restore us, O God of our salvation,
And cause Your indignation toward us to cease.
5Will You be angry with us forever?
Will You prolong Your anger to all generations?
6Will You not revive us and bring us to life again,
That Your people may rejoice in You?
7Show us Your lovingkindness, O Lord,
And grant us Your salvation.
8I will hear [with expectant hope] what God the Lord will say,
For He will speak peace to His people, to His #I.e. believers, those in right standing with Him.godly ones—
But let them not turn again to folly.
9Surely His salvation is near to those who [reverently] fear Him [and obey Him with submissive wonder],
That glory [the manifest presence of God] may dwell in our land.
10Steadfast love and truth and faithfulness meet together;
Righteousness and peace kiss each other.
11Truth springs from the earth,
And righteousness looks down from heaven.
12Indeed, the Lord will give what is good,
And our land will yield its produce.
13Righteousness will go before Him
And will make His footsteps into a way [in which to walk].
