1: Jehovah, thou hast been favorable 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 indignation 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 quicken us again, That thy people may rejoice in thee? 7: Show us thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, And grant us thy salvation. 8: 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. 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 springeth out of the earth; And righteousness hath looked down from heaven. 12: Yea, Jehovah will give that which is good; And our land shall yield its increase. 13: Righteousness shall go before him, And shall make his footsteps a way [to walk in].
