Psalms 85:5-13

⁵Are you going to be furious with us forever? Will you stay angry with us for all future generations?

⁶Won't you restore our lives so your people can find happiness in you?

⁷Show us your trustworthy love, Lord! Give us your salvation!

⁸Let me hear what God has to say. God speaks peace to his people, to those who trust in him. But they must not return to their foolish ways.

⁹Truly God's salvation is with those who do as he says. His glorious presence will live with us in our land.

¹⁰Trustworthiness and faithful love join together; goodness and peace have kissed each other.

¹¹What is true grows up from the earth; what is right looks down from heaven.

¹²The Lord will certainly give us all that is good, and our land will produce fine crops.

¹³Truth and right go ahead of him to prepare a path for him to walk on.
