Salmos 85:6-13

6 ¿No volverás a darnos vida para que tu pueblo se regocije en ti?

7 Muéstranos, oh SEÑOR, tu misericordia, y danos tu salvación.

8 Escucharé lo que dirá Dios el SEÑOR, porque hablará paz a su pueblo, a sus santos; pero que no vuelvan ellos a la insensatez.

9 Ciertamente cercana está su salvación para los que le temen, para que more su gloria en nuestra tierra.

10 La misericordia y la verdad se han encontrado, la justicia y la paz se han besado.

11 La verdad brota de la tierra, y la justicia mira desde los cielos.

12 Ciertamente el SEÑOR dará lo que es bueno, y nuestra tierra dará su fruto.

13 La justicia irá delante de El, y sus pasos pondrá por camino.

Salmos 85:6-13 Meaning and Commentary

To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah. This psalm is generally thought to have been composed after the return of the Jews from their captivity in Babylon; and yet when they were in some distress from their neighbours, either in the times of Ezra and Nehemiah, or in the times of Antiochus; but then this deliverance from captivity must be considered as typical of redemption by Christ; for as the title of the Syriac version is, "it is a prophecy concerning Christ;" it speaks of his dwelling in the land, of his salvation being near, and of the glory of the divine perfections as displayed in it; and perhaps some parts of it may respect the conversion of the Jews in the latter day; and Aben Ezra and Kimchi say, it is concerning the captivity of Babylon, yet also of their present captivity.
