Verse BSB Berean Standard Bible ASV American Standard Version

For the choirmaster. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. You showed favor to Your land , O LORD ; You restored Jacob from captivity.

Jehovah , thou hast been favorable unto thy land ; Thou hast brought back the captivity of Jacob .

You forgave the iniquity of Your people; You covered all their sin. Selah

Thou hast forgiven the iniquity of thy people; Thou hast covered all their sin. Selah

You withheld all Your fury ; You turned from Your burning anger.

Thou hast taken away all thy wrath ; Thou hast turned `thyself' from the fierceness of thine anger.

Restore us, O God of our salvation, and put away Your displeasure toward us.

Turn us, O God of our salvation, And cause thine indignation toward us to cease .

Will You be angry with us forever ? Will You draw out Your anger to all generations?

Wilt thou be angry with us for ever ? Wilt thou draw out thine anger to all generations?

Will You not revive us again, that Your people may rejoice in You ?

Wilt thou not quicken us again, That thy people may rejoice in thee ?

Show us Your loving devotion , O LORD , and grant us Your salvation.

Show us thy lovingkindness , O Jehovah , And grant us thy salvation.

I will listen to what God the LORD will say ; for He will surely speak peace to His people and His saints ; He will not let them return to folly.

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.

Surely his salvation is nigh them that fear him, That glory may dwell in our land.

Loving devotion and faithfulness have joined together; righteousness and peace have kissed.

Mercy and truth are met together; Righteousness and peace have kissed each other .

Faithfulness sprouts from the earth , and righteousness looks down from heaven.

Truth springeth out of the earth ; And righteousness hath looked down from heaven.

The LORD will indeed provide what is good , and our land will yield its increase.

Yea, Jehovah will give that which is good ; And our land shall yield its increase.

Righteousness will go before Him to prepare the way for His steps .

Righteousness shall go before him , And shall make his footsteps a way `to walk in' .
