Psalms 85

Bishops(i) 1 O God, thou art become gracious vnto thy land: thou hast brought Iacob agayne home out of captiuitie 2 Thou hast forgeuen the wickednes of thy people: and couered all their sinnes. Selah 3 Thou hast taken away al thy displeasure: and turned thy selfe from thy wrathfull indignation 4 Turne vs O God of our saluation: and let thyne anger ceasse from vs 5 Wilt thou be displeased at vs for euer? and wylt thou stretche out thy wrath from one generation to another 6 Wylt thou not turne agayne and reuiue vs: that thy people may reioyce in thee 7 Shew vs thy louing kindnes O God: and graunt vs thy saluation 8 I wyll hearken what God the Lord saith: for he speaketh peace vnto his people & to his saintes, that they turne not agayne to folly 9 For truely his saluation is nye them that feare him: insomuch that glory dwelleth in our earth 10 Mercy and trueth are met together: righteousnes and peace haue kissed [eche other. 11 Trueth shall bud out of the earth: and ryghteousnes shall looke downe from heauen 12 Yea, God shall geue all that is good: and our earth shall geue her encrease 13 [Euery man] shall cause righteousnes to go before him: and he shall direct his steppes in the way
