To the Overseer. -- By sons of Korah. A Psalm. Thou hast accepted, O Jehovah, Thy land, Thou hast turned `to' the captivity of Jacob. |
2. |
Thou hast borne away the iniquity of Thy people, Thou hast covered all their sin. Selah. |
3. |
Thou hast gathered up all Thy wrath, Thou hast turned back from the fierceness of Thine anger. |
4. |
Turn back `to' us, O God of our salvation, And make void Thine anger with us. |
5. |
To the age art Thou angry against us? Dost Thou draw out Thine anger To generation and generation? |
6. |
Dost Thou not turn back? Thou revivest us, And Thy people do rejoice in Thee. |
7. |
Show us, O Jehovah, thy kindness, And Thy salvation Thou dost give to us. |
8. |
I hear what God Jehovah speaketh, For He speaketh peace unto His people, And unto His saints, and they turn not back to folly. |
9. |
Only, near to those fearing Him `is' His salvation, That honour may dwell in our land. |
10. |
Kindness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have kissed, |
11. |
Truth from the earth springeth up, And righteousness from heaven looketh out, |
12. |
Jehovah also giveth that which is good, And our land doth give its increase. |
13. |
Righteousness before Him goeth, And maketh His footsteps for a way! |
