1 T o the Overseer. -- By sons of Korah. A Psalm. Thou hast accepted, O Jehovah, Thy land, Thou hast turned the captivity of Jacob.

2 T hou hast borne away the iniquity of Thy people, Thou hast covered all their sin. Selah.

3 T hou hast gathered up all Thy wrath, Thou hast turned back from the fierceness of Thine anger.

4 T urn back us, O God of our salvation, And make void Thine anger with us.

5 T o the age art Thou angry against us? Dost Thou draw out Thine anger To generation and generation?

6 D ost Thou not turn back? Thou revivest us, And Thy people do rejoice in Thee.

7 S how us, O Jehovah, thy kindness, And Thy salvation Thou dost give to us.

8 I hear what God Jehovah speaketh, For He speaketh peace unto His people, And unto His saints, and they turn not back to folly.

9 O nly, near to those fearing Him His salvation, That honour may dwell in our land.

10 K indness and truth have met, Righteousness and peace have kissed,

11 T ruth from the earth springeth up, And righteousness from heaven looketh out,

12 J ehovah also giveth that which is good, And our land doth give its increase.

13 R ighteousness before Him goeth, And maketh His footsteps for a way!
