“1 <<To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah.>> 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.” (Psalm 85:1-13 AV)
