1LORD, 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.4Turn 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 allgenerations?6
Wilt thou not revive us again : that thy people may rejoice in thee?
7Shew us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation.8
I will hear what God the LORD will speak : for he will speakpeace 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.10Mercy and truth are met together ; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
11Truth 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.13Righteousness shall gobefore him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.
