1 To the chief music-maker. A Psalm. Of the sons of Korah.
2 \85:1\Lord, you were good to your land: changing the fate of Jacob.
3 \85:2\The wrongdoing of your people had forgiveness; all their sin had been covered. (Selah.)
4 \85:3\You were no longer angry: you were turned from the heat of your wrath.
5 \85:4\Come back to us, O God of our salvation, and be angry with us no longer.
6 \85:5\Will you go on being angry with us for ever? will you keep your wrath against us through all the long generations?
7 \85:6\Will you not give us life again, so that your people may be glad in you?
8 \85:7\Let us see your mercy, O Lord, and give us your salvation.
9 \85:8\I will give ear to the voice of the Lord; for he will say words of peace to his people and to his saints; but let them not go back to their foolish ways.
10 \85:9\Truly, his salvation is near to his worshippers; so that glory may be in our land.
11 \85:10\Mercy and faith have come together; righteousness and peace have given one another a kiss.
12 \85:11\Faith comes up from the earth like a plant; righteousness is looking down from heaven.
13 \85:12\The Lord will give what is good; and our land will give its increase.
14 \85:13\Righteousness will go before him, making a way for his footsteps.
1 耶和华啊! 你恩待了你的地, 恢复了雅各的产业("恢复了雅各的产业"或译: "领回了雅各被掳的")。
2 你赦免了你子民的罪孽, 遮盖了他们的一切罪恶。(细拉)
3 你收回了你的一切忿怒, 使你猛烈的怒气转消。
4 拯救我们的 神啊! 求你复兴我们, 求你止住你向我们所发的忿怒。
5 你要永远向我们发怒吗?你要延长你的怒气到万代吗?
6 你不使我们再活过来, 以致你的子民可以因你欢喜吗?
7 耶和华啊! 求你使我们得见你的慈爱, 又把你的救恩赐给我们。
8 我要听 神耶和华所要说的话; 因为他应许赐平安给他的子民, 给他的圣民; 但愿他们不要转向愚妄。
9 他的救恩的确临近敬畏他的人, 使他的荣耀住在我们的地上。
10 慈爱和信实彼此相遇, 公义和平安互相亲嘴。
11 信实从地上生出, 公义从天上俯视。
12 耶和华也必赐下好处, 我们的地要多出土产。
13 公义必行在他面前, 为他的脚步预备道路。
