To the chief Musician, A Psalm for the sons of Korah.

1 LORD, thou hast been favourable unto thy land: thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.

2 Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people, thou hast covered all their sin. Selah.

3 Thou hast taken away all thy wrath: thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger.

4 Turn us, O God of our salvation, and cause thine anger toward us to cease.

5 Wilt thou be angry with us for ever? wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?

6 Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee?

7 Shew us thy mercy, O LORD, and grant us thy salvation.

8 I will hear what God the LORD will speak: for he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints: but let them not turn again to folly.

9 Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him; that glory may dwell in our land.

10 Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

11 Truth shall spring out of the earth; and righteousness shall look down from heaven.

12 Yea, the LORD shall give that which is good; and our land shall yield her increase.

13 Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.

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。
