For the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

Jehovah, thou hast been favorable unto thy land;

Thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob.

Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people;

Thou hast covered all their sin. [SelahPsa 32:1; Rom 4:7

Thou hast taken away all thy wrath;

Thou hast turned thyself from the fierceness of thine anger.

Turn us, O God of our salvation,

And cause thine indignation toward us to cease.

Wilt thou be angry with us for ever?

Wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?Psa 13:1; Psa 77:7; Psa 79:5

Wilt thou not quicken us again,

That thy people may rejoice in thee?

Show us thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah,

And grant us thy salvation.

I will hear what God Jehovah will speak;

For he will speak peace unto his people, and to his saints:

But let them not turn again to folly.

Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him,

That glory may dwell in our land.Psa 97:6; Psa 145:18

Mercy and truth are met together;

Righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

Truth springeth out of the earth;

And righteousness hath looked down from heaven.

Yea, Jehovah will give that which is good;

And our land shall yield its increase.Jol 2:19; Jol 2:22

Righteousness shall go before him,

And shall make his footsteps a way to walk in.
