Psalms 85

85
For the music director. A psalm of the descendants of Korah
1Lord, you have shown your kindness to your land; you have restored Jacob's prosperity.#85:1. From the context is appears this psalm was written after the Babylonian captivity.
2You took away your people's guilt; you forgave all their sins. Selah.
3You took back your fury; you turned away from your fierce anger.
4Bring us back to you, God of our salvation! Take away your anger towards us.
5Are you going to be furious with us forever? Will you stay angry with us for all future generations?
6Won't you restore our lives so your people can find happiness in you?
7Show us your trustworthy love, Lord! Give us your salvation!
8Let me hear what God has to say. God speaks peace to his people, to those who trust in him. But they must not return to their foolish ways.
9Truly God's salvation is with those who do as he says. His glorious presence will live with us in our land.
10Trustworthiness and faithful love join together; goodness and peace have kissed each other.
11What is true grows up from the earth; what is right looks down from heaven.
12The Lord will certainly give us all that is good, and our land will produce fine crops.
13Truth and right go ahead of him to prepare a path for him to walk on.
