1O LORD, You have showed favour to Your land;
You restored the prosperity of Jacob.
2 You forgave the iniquity of Your people;
You covered all their sins. Selah
3 You set aside all Your wrath;
You turned from Your fierce anger.
4 Restore us again, O God of our salvation,
and put away Your indignation toward us.
5 Will You be angry with us forever?
Will You prolong Your anger to all generations?
6 Will You not revive us again,
so that Your people may rejoice in You?
7 Show us faithful love, O LORD,
and grant us Your salvation.
8 I will listen to what God the LORD will say;
He will speak peace to His people, to His saints,
but let them not turn back to folly.
9 Surely His salvation is near those who fear Him,
that His glory may dwell in our land.
10 Faithful love and truth meet together;
righteousness and peace kiss.
11 Truth springs forth from the earth,
and righteousness looks down from heaven.
12 The LORD bestows that which is good,
and our land yields its harvest.
13 Righteousness goes before Him
to prepare the way for His steps.
