1For the music director; written by the Korahites, a psalm. O LORD, you showed favor to your land; you restored the well-being of Jacob. | 1LORD, you showed favor to your land; you restored the fortunes of Jacob. |
2You pardoned the wrongdoing of your people; you forgave all their sin. (Selah) | 2You forgave your people's guilt; you covered all their sin. Selah |
3You withdrew all your fury; you turned back from your raging anger. | 3You withdrew all your fury; you turned from your burning anger. |
4Restore us, O God our deliverer! Do not be displeased with us! | 4Return to us, God of our salvation, and abandon your displeasure with us. |
5Will you stay mad at us forever? Will you remain angry throughout future generations? | 5Will you be angry with us forever? Will you prolong your anger for all generations? |
6Will you not revive us once more? Then your people will rejoice in you! | 6Will you not revive us again so that your people may rejoice in you? |
7O LORD, show us your loyal love! Bestow on us your deliverance! | 7Show us your faithful love, LORD, and give us your salvation. |
8I will listen to what God the LORD says. For he will make peace with his people, his faithful followers. Yet they must not return to their foolish ways. | 8I will listen to what God will say; surely the LORD will declare peace to his people, his faithful ones, and not let them go back to foolish ways. |
9Certainly his loyal followers will soon experience his deliverance; then his splendor will again appear in our land. | 9His salvation is very near those who fear him, so that glory may dwell in our land. |
10Loyal love and faithfulness meet; deliverance and peace greet each other with a kiss. | 10Faithful love and truth will join together; righteousness and peace will embrace. |
11Faithfulness grows from the ground, and deliverance looks down from the sky. | 11Truth will spring up from the earth, and righteousness will look down from heaven. |
12Yes, the LORD will bestow his good blessings, and our land will yield its crops. | 12Also, the LORD will provide what is good, and our land will yield its crops. |
13Deliverance goes before him, and prepares a pathway for him. | 13Righteousness will go before him to prepare the way for his steps. |
