Psalms 84

¹Unto the end, for the sons of Core, a psalm. ²Lord, thou hast blessed thy land: thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob. ³Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people: thou hast covered all their sins. ⁴Thou hast mitigated all thy anger: thou hast turned away from the wrath of thy indignation. ⁵Convert us, O God our saviour: and turn off thy anger from us. ⁶Wilt thou be angry with us for ever: or wilt thou extend thy wrath from generation to generation? ⁷Thou wilt turn, O God, and bring us to life: and thy people shall rejoice in thee. ⁸Shew us, O Lord, thy mercy; and grant us thy salvation. ⁹I will hear what the Lord God will speak in me: for he will speak peace unto his people: And unto his saints: and unto them that are converted to the heart. ¹⁰Surely his salvation is near to them that fear him: that glory may dwell in our land. ¹¹Mercy and truth have met each other: justice and peace have kissed. ¹²Truth is sprung out of the earth: and justice hath looked down from heaven. ¹³For the Lord will give goodness: and our earth shall yield her fruit. ¹⁴Justice shall walk before him: and he shall set his steps in the way.
