UST PSA Chapter 85

85 This is a note for the worship leader: of the Korahites wrote psalm.

1 Yahweh, you have brought back the Israelites who were exiles

so that this land can be prosperous again.

2 You forgave all the sins that your people committed. Selah

3 You completely ceased being angry with us

and stopped punishing us severely.

4 God, you are the one who saves us.

Please stop being upset with us, and make us strong again.

5 Please do not be continually angry with us

and with our children and grandchildren.

6 Please help us so that we will thrive again.

Then we, your people, will be happy because of you.

7 Yahweh, please treat us kindly as you promised

and rescue us from our troubles.

8 I am going to listen to what Yahweh, my God, says to me.

I believe he will say that he will make his people thrive if they are loyal to him.

However, they must not do foolish things anymore.

9 He is surely ready to help people who deeply respect him.

Then he will be gloriously present with us in our land.

10 He will be faithfully kind and true to us.

He will do what is right and make us peaceful.

11 People on earth will be faithful to God,

and God will act justly toward us from heaven.

12 Yes, Yahweh will give us good things,

and our land will produce abundant harvests.

13 As he considers what to do,

he will recognize what the right thing is to do,

and he will do that.
