Hope in God’s Future Help
1 For the [music] director. Of the sons of Korah. A psalm.
1 O Yahweh, you favored your land. You restored the fortunes of Jacob.
2
You took away the guilt of your people; you covered all their sin. Selah
3
You withdrew all your wrath; you turned from your burning anger.
4
Restore us, O God of our salvation, and annul your vexation with us.
5
Will you be angry against us forever? Will you prolong your anger generation after generation?
6
Will you not again revive us, that your people might rejoice in you?
7
Show us, O Yahweh, your loyal love, and grant us your salvation.
8
I will hear what God, Yahweh, will speak, because he will speak peace to his people, even his faithful [ones], but let them not return to folly.
9
Surely his salvation [is] near for those who fear him, that glory may abide in our land.
10
Loyal love and faithfulness will meet one another; righteousness and peace will kiss.
