Revive Us Again
To the choirmaster. A Psalm of 85:0 Ps. 42, titlethe Sons of Korah.

1Lord, you were 85:1 Ps. 77:7favorable to your land;
you 85:1 Ps. 14:7restored the fortunes of Jacob.
2You 85:2 Ps. 32:1forgave the iniquity of your people;
you 85:2 Ps. 32:1covered all their sin. Selah
3You withdrew all your wrath;
you 85:3 Ps. 78:38; 106:23; Ex. 32:12; Deut. 13:17; Jonah 3:9turned from your hot anger.

485:4 See Ps. 80:3Restore us again, O God of our salvation,
and put away your indignation toward us!
585:5 [Ps. 79:5]Will you be angry with us forever?
Will you prolong your anger to all generations?
6Will you not 85:6 Ps. 71:20revive us again,
that your people may 85:6 Ps. 90:14; 149:2rejoice in you?
7Show us your steadfast love, O Lord,
and grant us your salvation.

885:8 [Hab. 2:1] Let me hear what God the Lord will speak,
for he will 85:8 Zech. 9:10; [Hag. 2:9] speak peace to his people, to his 85:8 See Ps. 50:5saints;
but let them not 85:8 [2 Pet. 2:21] turn back to 85:8 [Ps. 49:13]folly.
9Surely his 85:9 Isa. 46:13salvation is near to those who fear him,
that 85:9 Zech. 2:5; [John 1:14]glory may dwell in our land.

1085:10 Ps. 89:14; See Ps. 40:11Steadfast love and faithfulness meet;
85:10 [Isa. 45:8]; See Ps. 72:3righteousness and peace kiss each other.
11Faithfulness springs up from the ground,
and righteousness looks down from the sky.
12Yes, 85:12 Ps. 84:11; [James 1:17] the Lord will give what is good,
and our land 85:12 See Ps. 67:6will yield its increase.
1385:13 Ps. 89:14; Isa. 58:8Righteousness will go before him
and make his footsteps a way.
