[1] TO THE OVERSEER. A PSALM OF THE SONS OF KORAH. You have accepted, O YHWH, Your land, || You have turned [to] the captivity of Jacob. [2] You have carried away the iniquity of Your people, || You have covered all their sin. Selah. [3] You have gathered up all Your wrath, || You have turned back from the fierceness of Your anger. [4] Turn back [to] us, O God of our salvation, || And make void Your anger with us. [5] Are You angry against us for all time? Do You draw out Your anger || To generation and generation? [6] Do You not turn back? You revive us, || And Your people rejoice in You. [7] Show us, O YHWH, your kindness, || And You give to us Your salvation. [8] I hear what God, YHWH, speaks, || For He speaks peace to His people, || And to His saints, and they do not turn back to folly. [9] Surely His salvation [is] near to those fearing Him, || That glory may dwell in our land. [10] Kindness and truth have met, || Righteousness and peace have kissed, [11] Truth springs up from the earth, || And righteousness looks out from the heavens, [12] YHWH also gives that which is good, || And our land gives its increase. [13] Righteousness goes before Him, || And makes a way for His footsteps!
