Tehillim 85 - The Orthodox Jewish Bible(TOJB2011)

1(For the one directing. Of the Bnei Korach. Mizmor)

2 Hashem, Thou hast been favorable unto Thy land;

Thou hast brought back the captivity of Ya'akov.

3 Thou hast forgiven the avon (iniquity) of Amecha (Thy people);

Thou hast covered all their chattat (sin).

Selah

4 Thou hast withdrawn all Thy wrath;

Thou hast turned from Thine charon af.

5 Turn us, O Elohei Yisheinu (G-d of our salvation),

and put away Thine ka'as (anger) toward us.

6 Wilt Thou be angry with us l'olam?

Wilt Thou draw out Thine anger l'dor vador?

7 Wilt Thou not revive us again;

that Amecha (Thy people) may rejoice in Thee?

8 Show us chasdecha (Thy chesed, kindness, steadfast love), Hashem,

and grant us Thy salvation.

9 I will hear what HaEl Hashem will say;

for He will speak shalom unto His people, and to His Chasidim;

but let them not turn again to folly.

10 Surely His salvation is karov (near) them that fear Him;

that kavod may dwell in Artzeinu (our land).

11 Chesed and emes will meet together;

tzedek and shalom will kiss each other.

12 Emes shall titzmach (sprout forth)

out of ha'aretz;

and tzedek shall look down from Shomayim.

13 Yes, Hashem shall give that which is tov;

and Artzeinu (our land) shall yield her yevul (increase, produce).

14 Tzedek shall go before Him;

and shall set us in the Derech of His steps.
