You have shown favor to your land

1
Unto the end. A Psalm to the sons of Korah.
2
O Lord, you have blessed your land. You have turned aside the captivity of Jacob.
3
You have released the iniquity of your people. You have covered all their sins.
4
You have mitigated all your wrath. You have turned aside from the wrath of your indignation.
5
Convert us, O God, our Savior, and turn your anger away from us.
6
Will you be angry with us forever? And will you extend your wrath from generation to generation?
7
O God, you will turn back and revive us. And your people will rejoice in you.
8
O Lord, reveal to us your mercy, and grant to us your salvation.
9
I will listen to what the Lord God may be saying to me. For he will speak peace to his people, and to his saints, and to those who are being converted to the heart.(a)
10
So then, truly his salvation is near to those who fear him, so that glory may inhabit our land.
11
Mercy and truth have met each other. Justice and peace have kissed.
12
Truth has risen from the earth, and justice has gazed down from heaven.
13
For so will the Lord give goodness, and our earth will give her fruit.
14
Justice will walk before him, and he will set his steps upon the way.

You have shown favor to your land

1
LORD, you have been favorable to your land. You have restored the fortunes of Jacob.
2
You have forgiven the iniquity of your people. You have covered all their sin. Selah.
3
You have taken away all your wrath. You have turned from the fierceness of your anger.
4
Turn us, God of our salvation, and cause your indignation toward us to cease.
5
Will you be angry with us forever? Will you draw out your anger to all generations?
6
Won’t you revive us again, that your people may rejoice in you?
7
Show us your loving kindness, LORD. Grant us your salvation.
8
I will hear what God, the LORD, will speak, for he will speak peace to his people, his saints; but let them not turn again to folly.
9
Surely his salvation is near those who fear him, that glory may dwell in our land.
10
Mercy and truth meet together. Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.
11
Truth springs out of the earth. Righteousness has looked down from heaven.
12
Yes, the LORD will give that which is good. Our land will yield its increase.
13
Righteousness goes before him, and prepares the way for his steps.
